There will be a public memorial for Rick on Sunday, February 1st at
the Seattle Go Center (http://www.seattlegocenter.org), starting at
5:00 p.m. The finer details of the program haven't been set yet, but
there will be a time for sharing memories starting at 5:00, followed
by a potluck when we're done with public sharing. The event should
last until 7:00 or 8:00. The go center will remain open as usual until
after 10:00 p.m.
Rick was a fantastic cook and a vegetarian who tried to avoid dairy
and eggs, so it would be appropriate to bring your most fabulous and
decadent vegetarian dish -- or something with chocolate -- he also had
a weakness for chocolate.
We are putting together a booklet and possibly a web page about Rick.
If you have any memories of Rick, even just a line or two, please send
them to me. He hadn't been dancing long, so specifically I'm thinking
about Meg & Alan, Diana Herbst, Babs, Michael Lyons from California,
and Warren, though there may be others I haven't thought of (my
thinking isn't top notch these days).
I'd like to thank everyone who has reached out to me in person, by
e-mail, by phone. Rick's loss is devastating to me. I really don't
know how I'll want to go on without him. The world seems much grayer
and sadder than when he was a part of it.
With love and appreciation for the support we give each other,
Shawn
Please would someone send me Shawn's e-mail address, privately? I knew
her when she lived in Tokyo, but lost touch.
