Who's Visit

In April 2008, on my way home from work, I noticed an owl perched across the street from my house.  He or she was there for a few days and could be heard who-ing at all hours.

Fast forward 11 years...  Dr. Caitlin Stiglmeier was visiting in Williamstown, April 2019.  When we looked out the kitchen window we saw another owl.  Possibly a descendant of of the 2008 bird.  Caitlin was moved to write a haiku in homage to this magnificent bird.

Aloft on the branch
But who is looking at who?
Slowly fat flakes fall

Barren Boughs

that time of bare ruined choirs
where birds will soon sing

Knocking on Heaven's Door

In January of 2015, we held a Winter Study class at month long Williams College on issues pertaining to Death and Dying.  The course led to a web site, KOHD-WC, that has taken on a life of its own (pun intended).

If you are interested in this topic, we can add your name to the KOHD-WC mailing list.  Just email DJE. The death and dying blog has timely information that will be helpful to some individuals.
