Brian will be deeply missed. He had such passion, insight, good humor and
love for others.

Dear Colleagues, 

Brian died at 3:25AM Wednesday June 8 in his bed at home as he wished.  The
Robins, Oakleys, 
Katrin Ogilvy, Amanda Healey- the careworker who lives with us- and I really
did what felt like 
several funerals yesterday at Brian's bedside in our home.  It felt so
right.  We cried and laughed together,
sang, prayed and read poetry.  The priest Charles, who is from Malta and has
a bit of the Irish whimsy came  
for a while as well. 

The memorial service will be on Wednesday in Seaford at the Ecumenical
Mission at 1:30PM.  We are creating
the service with Brian Robins and Father Charles based on what we did at
Brian Williams and Bev Parker's memorial
in Canada.

People wishing to commemorate Brian in some way may make contributions to
local ICA offices for practical 
edge research, a manifestation of Brian's life work.  

Peace,

Jeanette
