THis is why she meant so much to me. This post catches a powerful teaching moment for me and it changed my practice: http://www.chriscorrigan.com/parkinglot/designing-with-introverts-in-mind/ Chris On Sun, Mar 7, 2021 at 11:15 PM Romy Shovelton via OSList <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > wrote: How absolutely precious…… Fly well Tree !! 😊 Romy Romy Shovelton Executive Director Wikima and the 5* Tyddyn Retreat Mid Wales Venue & Holiday Cottages www.wikima.com <http://www.wikima.com> www.walescottageandvenue.com <http://www.walescottageandvenue.com> Facebook: Tyddyn Retreat Twitter: @MidWalesRetreat Instagram: tyddynretreat [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> skype: romy shovelton +44 (0) 7767 370739 +44 (0) 1686 420725 Tyddyn y Pwll, Carno Caersws, Powys, SY17 5JU On 7 Mar 2021, at 10:33, Gail West via OSList <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > wrote: I do, indeed, remember Tree at Whidbey Island.

She left this earth on January 20th. A small group of us have planned a memorial celebration for her. It is, of course, informed by Open Space. An invitation is below and on Facebook <https://www.facebook.com/events/764707827506392/?active_tab=about> . Please come and share the invitation with others you believe would want to know. Of course, if you want to share a story on this list, I suspect many of us have learned from and even loved Tree. Many thanks, Peggy <https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/S6rNM2Kqinr71Laj0hwvGTOw4bkUb28HCQkYyPs76uNWMpTpBl5QFxB1G06bMV8Si1GpbofRx7rzIbAl9e6vOsTCnZ7cYel82PBXWSvn5gR9u2fS3adEI5lEENU2voF8vAr4ZGIc> Therese (Tree) Fitzpatrick August 16, 1953 - January 20, 2021 Bio Therese Marie Fitzpatrick (“Tree”) was born in Mitchell, South Dakota (home of the Corn Palace), and raised on the south side of Chicago. Throughout her life, she lived in many places, including the Midwest, South America, Northeast, and Northwest before she landed in Berkeley, a place she’d always dreamed of living. She was a mother, a writer, an attorney, a political activist, a consultant, an art lover, a voracious reader, a daily swimmer, a sister, a daughter, and a friend. She was brilliant, determined, resourceful, loving, and creative. Despite a lifetime of challenges, she worked diligently to create and live the life she wanted. Join us as we remember her. In memoriam… Zoom Memorial - Sunday, March 21, 7 - 8:30pm ET /4-5:30 pm PT Please join friends and family of Therese Marie Fitzpatrick (Tree) to honor and remember her fierce and loving spirit.

Our purpose is to: * Honor Tree * Share/process our feelings * Draw her family into the circle of love that Tree created among her friends * Offer some sense of closure We’ll be sharing stories at the celebration so please bring yours. Additional Ways to Celebrate Share Favorites Whether or not you come to the memorial, here are other ways to celebrate Tree’s life: * Post on her <https://www.facebook.com/events/764707827506392/?active_tab=discussion> Facebook Memorial event page * Send music suggestions and pictures to Nancy White at [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> . We’ll use them during the memorial service so share now! Make a Donation Three suggestions from her daughter: * <https://walkerart.org/> Walker Art Center This is an incredible museum in Minneapolis that my mother took me to once a month as a child, and at which my mother was a volunteer and tour guide. * <https://stfrancisfriends.org/> Saint Francis Friends of the Poor. This is an organization in NYC whose mission is as follows: "to offer permanent housing and supportive services to homeless men and women with histories of chronic mental illness." Saint Francis Friends of the Poor is an organization that is near and dear to my heart, and with which I work closely. They are trailblazers who revolutionized the supportive housing model in NYC 40 years ago, and are well known to be the standard-bearers for the provision of housing and services to individuals with chronic mental illness in New York. I consider my work with St. Francis and other similar organizations to be my own personal way to honor my mother, and I can’t think of a better way for her friends to honor her than to support the work of an organization dedicated to providing a dignified, meaningful life to individuals with similar challenges. * <https://depts.washington.edu/uwbrtc/about-us/support-dr-linehans-legacy/> Dr. Marsha M. Lineham’s Legacy at the University of Washington This fund will create fellowships in Dr. Lineham’s name to support students who are training to be the next generation of dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) practitioners and researchers. Dr. Lineham’s program brought my mother to Seattle, and she often spoke of their positive impact. With love, Katie Devine, Peggy Holman, Lana Harris, Mary Ella Keblusek, Kenoli Oleari, Nancy White **** I am in the Golden Tunnel today. Great to be back. Everything is holy in the Golden Tunnel. Everything is happy. Love is all around. So is Light.
