Marie-Catherine MENOZZI

Marie-Catherine je ne te connaissais pas bien mais je t’aimais beaucoup et c’était suffisant à nos yeux. Tu m’as beaucoup apporté dans le rythme du cœur et je possède toujours le tambour que tu m’as fait et j’en suis fier. J’étais aussi fier de toi de toutes tes traversées et les espaces que tu as conquis par ton courage tes danses et l’amour que tu portais aux autres. Je sais que tu restes vivante quelque part jouant pour nous tous le rythme de bienvenue : bienvenue à tout ce qui est ! Bienvenue à tout ce qui s’en va. Bienvenue à tout ce qui revient. Tu demeures dans nos cœurs Marie-Catherine.

Dearest Marie Catherine❤️,
if we are all one, then all our souls are connected🌈. If I don't see you anymore, I will see you in the trees, the animals, in the sky and in my heart, I hear you in my drum. When I dream of you, why do you have to be visible? So I take you, Marie Catherine, in my heart, with all the wonderful memories of you, and go wherever my path leads me, you will always be with me.
I love you and your trail leads into our heart👣 Angelika🌻

Bien chère Marie Catherine, tu resteras inoubliable dans mon corps et mon esprit, tant nos partages et ta transmission chamanique ont fait vibrer mon corps et mon âme... C'est à jamais inscrit en moi !
Je te souhaite un passage doux et bien mérité vers la lumière... Sans oublier tes proches et ta famille .
A toujours dans le coeur.
Nicole

Marie Catherine
Je ressens tellement ta Présence, la magicienne que tu étais.
Combien de fois, tu m’as dit un seul mot pour que tout s’éclaire.
Je suis reconnaissante à l’Univers de nous avoir réunies.
Ton chemin continue dans la Lumière. Mon Coeur reste avec toi pour toujours.

Marie-Catherine
Tu étais l'incarnation de l'authenticité et du dévouement, toujours intègre, dans L'ÊTRE sans paraître.
Tu as mené ta vie tambour battant dans les sons et la Conscience.
Ton regard pénétrant et bienveillant, ta parole juste et généreuse, ton sourire malicieux nous a tant guidé-e-s, soigné-e-s....

Ta vie fut un Enseignement.
Ton départ vers d'autres dimensions aussi.
Je te remercie pour tout Marie-Catherine.
Je m'incline.
Je t'honore.
Je t'aime.
Bon voyage et à nos retrouvailles 😘
Brigitte

Cette nouvelle m'attriste beaucoup,je regarde et joue souvent du tambour, tambour que tu m'as aidé a construire dans ta forêt sous la pluie et les partages dans ton tipi. Je pense aussi à ces moments partagés dans les cercles avec Tom et Jutta. Que s'est il passé Marie Catherine ? pour que tu quittes ce monde aussi vite?Que ton âme voyage en Paix et rejoigne la Source.
De tout cœur avec ta famille. arlette

Petite Sœur Marie-Catherine,
Ce fut parfois un peu difficile entre nous, mais nous avons tellement partagé de Cercles, de cris de joie, de danses au-delà de nous-mêmes ! Je garde le souvenir ému de notre vraie et belle rencontre, enfin, à l'été 2024, à la Cannova, où notre rire a fait fondre le vieux malentendu qui n'avait plus lieu d'être et nous a réunies dans la sororité du cœur et de l'âme. Fais bon voyage dans la Lumière que tu as tant célébrée et touche à la Paix tant méritée. Grand câlin tendre.

Mon chère sœur Marie Catherine and all your drumming-family!

I was not at all shure about my own thoughts and feelings since I received the (heart-)breaking news via Martine, Kurt and Jutta - nor didn’t I feel to share words first.

But two days ago at night I clearly felt you with all your joy! Joy and also your loud, hoarse and infectious laughter - clearly present in my heart and soul - banishing all the heavy thoughts - bringing the desire to share some moments and events with You and the drumming-friends. And your clear message: "Don't worry!!"

We had a big joint departure and take-off into intense years in Drumming and Dancing, Sound and Consciousness as brought to earth by Tom Ehrlich. This journey of Croissee de Chemin was also our personal crossroads. I first met you at CDG-Airport in Paris on 27th of october 2008. When I arrived I found a nervously chatting group of drummers and newcomers - and, a little way off, a lady sitting cross-legged on the floor, calm and serene, with a djembe on her side. Something immediately recognised a ‘soulmate’. Ha, and as always, you were the first to arrive.

Just as on that India trip, over the next 17 years we shared many, many wonderful and intense drumming circles in France, Germany and Italy. It almost feels as though we had entered into a learning contract before our last incarnation. In terms of fulfilling duties, rigueur, strictness and willpower to achieve, maybe you matched more closely the traditional German pattern than me. For this and your incredible and tireless effort to support your teachers and the groups at some point in Cannova, I gave you the pet name “Hanuman”.

An example of your true nature from the foothills of the Himalayas: One early morning, we must have had the same crazy idea – to plunge into the freezing, raging waters of the Ganges. Whilst I was already about to head back to the camp, put off by the risk and the imagined shock of the cold, you had already stripped off your clothes and were waving at me from the water, laughing loudly. So, of course, I couldn’t back out then.

Thank you also for a whole bunch of joy, joy, joy - your drumming, your dances! Your dances that suddenly carried you and the whole group to unprecedented heights and depths. Your unwavering determination to unlock the secrets of drumming and to connect with yourself and the Spirit. All your contributions as participant and group-leader! I loved “body-time”, your cooking, scouting, plumbing, shopping, nursing and health care, all your “Seelsorge” for those who needed it most. Your always open eyes and heart for whats most needed, your clear priorities... And, in the last five years I even learned to really enjoyed mama-drum :) !

Thank you also for being protagonist in our running-gag in all the Cannovas and Köshofs in more than 15 years (Marie Catherine always came round the corner in the moment I had stuffed my mouth with “forbidden” fruits and vegan sweets in kitchens, in pantries and storerooms)! And also for having been my mirror so often! - Especially in moments when I didn’t want you to be and couldn’t bear to look at my reflection.

We also shared an afternoon at the Manikarnika Ghat in Varanasi. I think we both could well understand the sadness but at the same time the fully compassionate joy of the families that one of their beloved family members could go home to the SPIRIT.

Have a good transition Marie Catherine! All the Best on your way - OM Namoh Shivaya! You will always have a place in my heart and will continue to be a source of light and guidance in so many ways!

And one last wish until we “see” again: If you see my friend Júlio Camarinho (who passed away one week before you) on your way through the spheres, please give him a hand - o.k.!?

GOD BLESS YOU and you All!
Grande MERCI!
JAY HO!
