From the
Board of
Directors
April 2003
Dear Friends;
It is with deep sorrow and sense of loss that we forward
this mention of Darryl Thompson's passing on Saturday, March 29th.
Darryl was 56 years of age and had struggled valiantly for years against a
progressive lung disease. He was one of the most respected
representatives within the environmental community and was recognized last
year by Friends of Narbeck Wetland Sanctuary with a Lifetime Achievement
Award. Darryl and his family spoke fondly of the thoughtful
recognition given him by FNWS.
The good news is that Darryl lived an inspiring life and
the natural environment will benefit for generations to come because of
the lasting impressions he made on many of us, that we should be about the
business of protecting the environment.
A private memorial service for his family was held on
Sunday April 6. If you would like to remember Darryl formally, his
family requests that donations be made to Pilchuck Audubon Society, 1803
Hewitt Avenue, #108, Everett, WA 98201.
In Friendship,
