Please let us know what we can do to help you out through this tough 
phase, 
Violet.     

If you plan a memorial,   please reach out to us (many of us are in or 
near 
the Bay Area)...........we can help you to organize it if you want help 
or even take that responsibility completely off your shoulders if you just 
need the alone time to grieve.


There is also such great technical acumen on this site so if there's 
anything 
we can do to help you continue this list,  please don't hesitate to ask.
We'd love to help you continue his work and, in the same breath,  if it is 
a task 
that you feel is just too much (and who would blame you),  we can help you 
figure 
out how to pass that work and burden on.

Because of Kim's work and his vision of community,  this community has 
become 
incredibly strong.  We've had looping festivals in 20 countries already 
and the vibe just keeps growing. Between us, we have an amazing set of 
skills  
(including more prosaic things 
like cooking meals or helping out with physical work that you need done).

When my mother passed on,  our entire community reached out to us in our 
grief 
and people brought us meals,  cleaned up after us to allow ourselves to 
really 
grieve fully.   I hope you know that it's okay to reach out for that kind 
of help.

Please call on us.     We are so appreciative of what Kim did for this 
community 
and we are also aware why he loved you so much (and vice versa).

We are with you, honey!
