Information has just hit the news that Sunday’s house concert performer, Taylor Mitchell, has died. She was the victim of a coyote attack while hiking yesterday in the Cape Breton Highlands.
Steve and I are sending every thought and ounce of healing energy we have to her family, management, and friends at this very devastating loss. Taylor was excited to have two days off after our concert, and was thrilled at the thought of hiking in Cape Breton.
Taylor was in our home fewer than two days, but while here she blended in like she was one of our own. Steve and I would have had her stay forever, we liked her that well. We cannot imagine the depth of the loss those who love her are feeling.
The house concert went off without a hitch for those of you who are wondering. Except for our two year old constantly wanting to get on stage with her – which she took in stride. Her poor fingers were blistered from playing guitar so much – but she weathered on like a trooper, played flawlessly, and sang like the songbird she was.
Her songs are touching and personal, and were delivered with clarity of voice and spirit. We are so fortunate to have experienced this, and consider it a gift to have had the pleasure of her company.
