["Darren Doherty" <darren@permaculture.biz>]

Good morning Robyn,

Thank you so much for your eloquence - we are very saddened by this news and
our thoughts and prayers are with Trish. He was quite a bloke and people out
there might not know how much he did in too short a life.

Thank you to you and Geoff for taking the step of leading the PDC starting
in the next couple of weeks.

Darren, Lisa, Isaebella, Pearl & Zane
