Many of you who knew and cared for Julie Nicholson have been wondering if there will be any service or ceremony to give all of us a chance to say goodbye. Because her immediate family is scattered throughout the European continent, it is difficult for them to deal with matters other than legal and estate issues at this time. However, Chris Rimmer and I, as well as others close to Julie, have already discussed an event to celebrate her life later this spring or early summer. It is a time we all love. There could be no more appropriate time to honor our friend. We will keep you informed. 

Some of you asked about a contribution in Julie's name. Her stated wishes were that any donation should be made to the Vermont Center for Ecostudies (VCE), P.O. Box 420, Norwich, VT 05055.
