[Mick Allen]

I was saddened to read of Thom Kline’s passing just last December, like many I’m sure.

I didn’t know him that well – had only a few conversations at several of our monthly meetings – but from those and also witnessing how he interacted with others, he was an open, friendly, approachable, and active member of our club.

One of the conversations we had was of the imagery he produced and how he painstakingly cared about how the various layered interactions related and complemented one another. I would encourage those interested to visit the images on his website and contemplate the work, effect and affect that they convey.

I am saddened that our club’s personal interaction possibilities have been diminished so that in recent years, I haven’t seen his smile of acknowledgement – but the posted photo of him at one of the Howe Sound sites is a wonderful remembrance.
