[Oe List ...] The Completed Life and Death of Antonio "Tony" PerryElizondo

[Susan Fertig]

Jon, As I was reading your message, I glanced out the 10th floor window
of my condo and saw a Mourning Dove gracefully gliding on wind currents
over the open, green space below. I realized that I often think of birds
always flying with purpose, as in watching for worms or snatching
nesting material, and I don't think of them just "enjoying" flight. But
here was so clearly a "purpose" of enjoyment, as the Dove moved
languidly back and forth, up and around and down, only exercising its
wings briefly now and then to keep catching the currents of air. I was
struck by the freedom from toil and the soaring of spirit that comes in
death, and I was soothed.  I didn't know Tony and Ellery very well, but
when she was alive, Ellery and I corresponded and shared our stories of
the Philippines and swapped books about our families in the war there. I
miss her, and I'm saddened now by Tony's departure. Blessings on you and
Debra.

Dear Community,

Debra and I would like to share the announcement that our father,
Antonio Perry Elizondo passed over earlier this morning.

Zorba and all other spirits of power, passion and dance are surely
singing and preparing for his arrival in that Spirited next place.

More details will follow as we move with and into this process.  There
will be a memorial service in The Woodlands, TX (north side of Houston).

It is completed in Beauty,
Amen.
Jon Mark Elizondo
