What a wonderfully eclectic community we are! It was so worth the drive to be with the tribe again. Thank you, Blitzo and your conspirators for helping to reaffirm just how lucky we are to have each other.

Mo and I had a blast climbing and reuniting with everyone. Looking forward to seeing y'all again hopefully soon rather than later. If your ever in the Norht Bay I hope you'll look us up.

It's not so much the love that I felt while at the Blitzo memorial that struck me so poignantly...

It was the amazing collection of such a high caliber of people that were in attendance that seemed to speak volumes about the man I was there to remember. That so many great people came together to help in life and comfort as much as possible was the best indication about the human behind the seldom seen "Blitzo" handle here on the topo.

I didn't know Billie long at all. Didn't even really feel like I had come to know the man enough to go to the first name basis which seemed to me what everyone else had with him, but that had more to do with my place in life than anything else.

The stories, the photos, and the atmosphere of the evening gave me warmth i hope will stay with me a long time.

You people are great.
Blitzo was great

This was an awesome send off for the awesome guy Blitzo was. Thank you so very much Billie.
