Dawn Desert Hike in Greg's Memory
On May 25th, about 20 of Greg’s friends and colleagues, gathered together in Tucson Arizona for the Conference on Environmental Conflict Resolution, took a sunrise hike into desert (organized by Cindy Cooke). Among the flowering Saguaro cacti, a lone owl returning from the night’s hunt, and a few early morning hummingbirds, we joined hands in a prayer circle in honor of Greg. After sharing many kind words and reflecting on our own private memories, we were able to reach a consensus that Greg would have loved being with us at this special spot. (Although, we also agreed, it was more likely that he would have arrived after pulling one of his all-nighters rather than rolling out of bed at 4 AM with the rest of us).

Brother Greg,
Although we have only known each other since we met at Kripalu this past Christmas, I feel like there has been a deep bond between us for years. I was so pleased when people often assumed we were brothers, and in all our emails, we addressed each other as Brother Greg and Brother Ken. I'll always remember how you eased my pain when you visited me in New York in February. I was in a dark place at the time and you put your arm on my shoulder, looked at me with those kind blue eyes, and listened to me weep for a while without judging me. I am so sad that now that I am feeling well again, I cannot do the same for you. I would have given anything to ease the pain you must have been experiencing that made you end your life. I am going back to Kripalu this week, and it will be a sad experience without you. I will think of you during my meditations and always.
Love you, Bro.
