Dear Ellen and Rebstock family, Dick and I were deeply saddened this week at the death of a long time friend, David. And had great rememberings: from him digging in the Bubun vegetable garden in the deadly tropical heat, being in Kansas City and Lorimor when you had kids there, to finance treks to the HDP locations, the trip in your van in 2000 from Denver to Vail with the Lanphears for the Order gathering, book studies and conversations with Mariana Bailey, and more.

We were sorry to learn the news of David’s passing. We too join our colleagues in celebrating David’s extraordinary life. Our first memories of David go back to knowing him at the Kemper Building in the late 70s. David was using his expertise in working with HDPs to develop economic projects during that time. Fast forward to 2011 or so. David and Ellen moved to the Baltimore area and we eagerly invited them to join our DC/Baltimore House Church group. We discovered David was an imaginal educator, insightful teacher and wonderful film facilitator. His intellect was dedicated to the service of the earth in crisis and justice for all. We are grateful for the gifts he shared with the order, those he encountered in the many places he worked and with us. We send our love and prayers to Ellen, Mark, Tim, Peter and the other dear family members.

I give thanks often that I was assigned with the Rebstocks while I was in San Francisco, a very difficult year for me. They were tremendous support for our work and me personally. The three boys added their own sparkle to our life. David got a good job accounting in San Jose. Everyday he drove to San Jose for work; not an easy commute. He is missed.
