=======================

Dear Friends,

This is Rachel, writing from Richard's account.

Richard passed away early yesterday morning after a valiant battle with the devastating illness, ALS. We are so glad that he is free from suffering. And we will miss him deeply and always.

He left us with a beautiful daughter, Adele Fammeree, hundreds of brilliant songs and poems, the website and non-profit foundation, UniVerse of Poetry, and awareness of our human magic and interconnectedness. He lived to create from heart and soul, and he mentored and inspired so many of us on his journey.

We will be celebrating his life with a memorial service next weekend, time and location to be announced. Please check the websites, fammeree.com or www.universeofpoetry.org for details. We'll also post on facebook.

Rest in peace beloved Richard. We will love you always.

Rachel
