I'm sorry for your loss. It's hard to lose a friend

I’m so sorry and shocked to hear of Mark’s passing. I loved his input at Schumacher last June. Condolences especially to Charlotte and also to you and Nick and others.

I met Mark (and you, Charlotte and Nick) at Dartington last year, at the Labyrinth & Dancing Floor gathering. He struck me then as a person with a particular kind of irrepressible twinkle that gave a little tickle to the moment and made me smile. I'm so sorry to hear that he has gone from this world. We have just planted 2400 tiny trees which will be blessed at the spring equinox: I will be reading out the names of those who have gone, because the trees are a kind of memorial; if I may, I will add Mark's name. "From stardust we came; to soil we go / to join the web / that makes life grow."

I am so sorry for your loss. It sounds like you have a wonderful group of people around you who share interests, unique skills and an appreciation for the real things of life. Your friend Teresa is so beautiful in the picture you shared. I checked out her website too: lovely work!

So incredibly sad -- truly sorry for your loss. May you hold Mark and what he meant to you and within you in tenderness, and may you marvel to watch how his spirit unfolds within you through time.
