Ellen, I want to add my condolences to you and the entire family. I also want to say that the obituary was so fine. What a tribute to what we called ourselves, “The Nobodies of History”. But I would add, at times we were somebody!. There is a Mystery to life. People die all the time, but don’t leave much of a mark. Yet there ii is, a dream made real. A library, just a library, but step inside and you will feel the love that made it. Grace and Peace, Jack

So glad I got to know about Dick's life through the Altamont Enterprise, the writer did a terrific job of honoring him. I have worked with Ellen, but hadn't really known Dick. I'm not surprised that he had a good sense of humor -- praying that the grass wouldn't grow -- and that their children have interesting & helping careers. Journey on, Journey on...

This was a delightful tribute to Dick's life. So well written to create a sense of being so loved in your community. I do not remember him in NY early days. I will, however always hold precious in my heart, the Altamont labyrinth which I got to walk and to connect then so many years later. May your grieving be peaceful, dear friend, as you celebrate the now completed life of your one true love forever. On Sat, Jun 26, 2021, 7:39 PM Lynda C via OE <oe@lists.wedgeblade.net> wrote:
