Special Note

I recently wrote about a friend, Charles McGlashan, who was my age, 49, when he suffered a heart attack and died last Sunday. If you’re inclined to commemorate this fine man financially, his family suggests donations to the following:

• Wildcare, the Bay Area's most comprehensive wildlife aid and advocacy group

• The Marin Humane Society

• Green Sangha, which brings spiritual practice and environmental work together to heal our planet

• The Marin Economic Forum

or a charity of your choice in his honor.

Charles gave so much.
