Dear Lynda and Jo,

 

We celebrate and give thanks for David’s completed life.

Your families have made a great contribution to the spirit movement over the years.

Wonderful memories include this one! The Barbershop Quartet here in Sydney several years ago.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your families.

Grace and Peace, John and Robyn

Here is the post from Jo Nelson’s FB page:

 

For those of my old friends who knew him: my brother, David Zahrt, died peacefully in his sleep this morning. He had been suffering from Lewy Body Syndrome for a couple of years, and had been in long-term care for a year.  Family were able to be with him in the past week or so when he was admitted to hospice care. We were able to tell him what he meant to us and tell him goodbye on the weekend. Heidi Zahrt-Tenzin and her family have been with Lin for the last week. Both my sisters were also there. So here is my gratitude for the big brother that got me started on piano and guitar as a kid, and introduced me to the Institute, which has focused my vocation for the last 50 years. David was 82.

Peace,

Michael Shaw

What a shock! It seems like only yesterday David and Linda were sitting in our living room on some journey they had embarked on having to do with a cause they were interested in. And not long before that attending Academy with them in the early 70’s. Just good people is all I can say. Linda and Milan

Dear friends,

 

Jim and I are so grateful to have known David as a deep friend. 

 

He and Lin visited us some years ago now, here in Sydney.

 

A deep man of spirit and he is sorely missed by us and his beloved family circle. 

 

Grace and peace and with love from us, to you all who read this note of sadness.

 

Isobel Bishop.

I’ve not seen this here.  Jo Nelson posted on Facebook of her brother David Zahrt’s passing.

 

50 years ago this very year, David was my 1st Pryor and had a tremendous influence on my life.  My memories of him will endure.
