John 'Jack' EASTMAN

Johh "Jack" EASTMAN passed away quietly in his home surrounded by family at 3:05 a.m. on Wednesday, July 11, 2012. Jack was 59 years old.

We loved Jack and we will miss him dearly. We say "was," and yet here he is, still, all around us. When we stop for the squirrel in the road. When we recycle that piece of plastic. When we drive by Indian Creek, and it's "all" cleaned up. When we look out at the solar panel array. When we hear that sweet lilting voice of Chet Baker wafting in from the next room.

Her he is, Jack of the big heart, all around us, still being Jack and continuing to be Jack for many years to come. We love you, Jack.

"There is a stillness
On the tops of the hills.
In the tree tops
You feel
Hardly a breath of air.
The small birds fall silent in
the trees.
Simply wait: soon
You too will be silent."

~Goethe, translated by Robert Bly
