thanks so much, Lee - “character” he was, as are you! We’ve missed you over the past years @SATWIT.

Dear Collegues,
I am sorry to have to share this news with you - Warren Tolman completed this earthly portion of his journey during his 81st trip around the sun on March 1st.
I took an impromptu 4-day vacation trip to Florida last week with our daughter, Bonnie and her 16yo daughter. He was "sleeping peacefully" when we returned. Those of you who knew him well will understand that he chose this, and prepared us well.
The family will have a memorial sometime this summer when all the college-age grandkids are available. Warren wanted his ashes to be scattered in some special places - think of him at Fenway Park and Boston Garden, as well as a variety of golf courses on which he kept many of us laughing - it was his very special talent (his sense of humor, not so much his golf - though that, too, was quite humorous at times!!)
Our family is taking really good care of me. I’m with Bonnie’s family this week; Greg is coming to stay with me next week. Bonnie’s other daughter has a summer job near my home, so she will be living with me weekdays from May to September (perhaps there’s a song in there?). Greg’s daughter, Laura, is a Navy wife. They, along with our very first great-granddaughter, Aurnia, will be transferring to nearby Connecticut in late August (can’t wait to have them living closer to me!). I am fortunate, indeed, to have such a loving/caring family.
The journey we shared with many of you touched these locations: Boston (1968); Seattle (1968-1970); Kansas City (1970-1973); Atlanta (1973-1975); Nairobi and Kamweleni, Kenya (1975-1978), Frankfurt, Germany (1978-1979). The dates are approximate - of course I could be much more “specific” if I had Warren’s famous notebooks with me - he was such a detailed note-taker! Others of you will have known Warren from Chicago summer meetings and HDP consults.
If you would like to send me a note, please click on the “from” address - let’s not clog up everyone’s email-boxes with the long list on the list servers. Another way of saying this is: Use “reply”; not “reply all”.
Journey on, in Peace, Geri _______________________________________________ Dialogue mailing list Dialogue@lists.wedgeblade.net <mailto:Dialogue@lists.wedgeblade.net> http://lists.wedgeblade.net/listinfo.cgi/dialogue-wedgeblade.net
