Thank you Diana for this wonderful tribute to Kelly.
A veritable Mensch
I feel so lucky to have been able to spend many Awake and Alive retreats with Kelly and you. There was each year still more learning to be had, more exploration, more laughs and singing and more love to share. I have such gratitude for having met you both.
And it is a rare privilege to have shared in his journey through his writing.
All my love to you,
Erin

Diana, a beautiful testimony of who Kelly was; a true father, amazing husband and guiding light in our community and his large family. Kelly had the most loving, kind, and generous heart. His arms expanded to include everyone and his sheltering presence was a sanctuary for us all. He was able to hold the dark and the light with incredible sensitively and understanding. What a man was your man! XX

Dearest Diana and your beautiful family,
This is a beautiful and heart filled memory of Kelly. He touched me deeply by his presence, his depth of love that was felt by me and everyone, his unbelievable hugs, his wisdom, his clarity, his honesty, his energy, his humor and ability to play and have fun. Both you and Kelly are more than teachers, friends ... you have changed my life. I am so grateful and love you so much.

I wrote this on your FB page, but will post here too... dear Diana...
Trying to capture the magnificence of Kelly Lindsay in words ...how to do so -but oh, you have done so in such beautiful ways here. I keep experiencing Kelly in my heart now - it's very tangible... it's a warmth and radiance that is unmistakably Kelly. But then, my heart always felt more alive in Kelly's presence when I saw him.. Now, though, his bright beauty feels woven into the very fabric of all that is, so that it is never missing...and stronger than ever for all of us. xoxo

Ahhh dear friend, how often I think of you, just up the road. How often I think of Kelly, in the mystery. Thank you for posting this and sharing more of Kelly's journey and lovely life. May the house and this time "between" hold you like a cocoon, as you go through this chrysalis into the butterfly of your life now. It is not a life without him, but a life of different journeying. love, Christina
