Oh this is indeed sad news. <div>I met him more recent than maybe most of you when I came to Chicago for ICA Board meetings. He told me his name and I told him it's a name of a delicious medicinal fruit in the Philippines. That's how we bonded. I sent him pictures of "atis" and one time I was able to get some real fruits and we enjoyed eating it together. </div><div>May he rest in peace. <br><br><br><div class="yahoo-signature" style=""><a style="font-size:12px" href="https://mail.onelink.me/107872968?pid=nativeplacement&c=Global_Acquisition_YMktg_315_Internal_EmailSignature&af_sub1=Acquisition&af_sub2=Global_YMktg&af_sub3=&af_sub4=100000604&af_sub5=EmailSignature__Static_&af_ios_store_cpp=9d3a686e-218d-4849-8298-b480188dc8ac&af_android_url=https%3A%2F%2Fplay.google.com%2Fstore%2Fapps%2Fdetails%3Fid%3Dcom.yahoo.mobile.client.android.mail%26listing%3Demail_signature">Sent from Yahoo Mail for iPhone</a><br></div><br><p class="yahoo-quoted-begin" style="font-size: 15px; color: rgb(132, 115, 255); padding-top: 15px; margin-top: 0px;">On Sunday, December 28, 2025, 5:58 PM, Doug and Pat Druckenmiller via Dialogue <dialogue@lists.wedgeblade.net> wrote:</p><blockquote class="iosymail" style=""><div id="yiv4703549008"><div>

<div>Oh, no! It’s sad to hear this. </div>

<div>I originally met him in 1970/71 when he visited the DC House. His name was really Atis Feldmanis, and he had Latvian heritage — maybe was born there. In 1970 I remember he was very careful not to tell strangers he was Latvian. I think this was
from his family’s fear after WW2. </div>

<div>Recently he told me his mother pronounced it “Atti”, and he really appreciated it when I called him Atis. <br clear="all">

This morning, Sunday, December 28, Ed Feldmanis passed at his home in the GreenRise Intentional Community, Chicago. Ed was a long-time OE and ICA staff member, a communitarian at GreenRise, and, more recently, a dedicated volunteer with the ICA Archives program.
He also was a strongly committed member of an active, and long-standing, men’s group in the greater Chicago area.<br clear="none">
