I returned home from my six weeks in Patagonia in mid February to heart-breaking news; some one very dear to me and many others had lost his battle with cancer. Tim was my best friend's father and I count my blessings every day for the great fortune of knowing and loving him. He was a wonderfully generous man who gave so much of himself to his family and friends. I was blessed to be able spend as much time with him and the family as I could just before I left, much of it being in the hospital or at the center where he received his treatments. I couldn't bear the thought of being away for his passing, his funeral, or to grieve with his family, but he passed when I was up in the mountains, far too far away from phones, computers and mail. This world lost a bit of its color the day Tim left us to go home. He was a great, great man with a beautiful soul. We miss you and love you so much Tim.
