| We have lost a friend, WMNF-supporter and community activist, Loren Westenberger (fondly known as Berger) who passed away on a recent early Saturday morning, after attending the RiverHawk Music Festival in Dade City, Florida. He enthusiastically staffed the WMNF Outreach table all evening on Friday & stayed until 2 am, enjoying the company of friends by the campfire. He was found at his river property, where he planned to spend the night. Services were held Saturday at 11am, 11/19/11 at The Unity Church of Clearwater, 2465 Nursery Road (Not the Unitarian Universalist Church/UU). There will be a pot luck celebration of his life following services at 2030 58th St N. in Clearwater, 33760. Please bring a dish to share. On Sunday, 11/20/11, there was a Motorycle Run to spread his ashes at his river house and along the Ichetucknee River. Loren supported local festivals and help creat tree ordinance here in Tarpon Springs, meeting with then City Attorney John Hubbard to discuss the ordinance, presenting to the BOC about the importance of preserving our tree canopy, and the value of trees. He was a generous man who gave the City a gift of a Champion Buttonwood tree. Loren as also an excellent spoon player. |
