The following men, who once lived with us at Williams, have died. They are listed below, along with the date of death. As you have personal reflections to share – which might include a photograph, a copy of the memorial service, e-mail links to family members, suggestions for donations, whatever – please post them. To prevent spam attacks either Allan or I will then “approve” your post. Please note that we will NOT edit your reflections or comments.

Granted that given the nature of Nature this section will grow over time, I hope it also reflects an affirmation – for life itself, for service to family and community, and for the spiritual and religious convictions of the departed. Gregg
