A letter from Manfred Bleffert’s wife, Ulrike

Dear LANA Board members and friends,

our house as it was

I am sorry for my delayed response to LANA’s inquiry about Manfred and me. We have both been ill over a long time this year and both have been in the hospital several times.

Last summer’s flood that destroyed our home has had a deep echo in our lives, but is becoming better now! In spite of everything, we have been working as usual whenever we could. Manfred is composing, painting, and working with clay, and I am teaching eurythmy as I did before. 

Times are changing very much. How are you faring in the USA? We love to remember our courses there.  Thank you very much indeed for helping us so much! 

Loving thoughts to all of you and your work,

-Ulrike und Manfred
