A moment of silence to remember our beloved Kephra
A great loss to the progressive community in Central Indiana, and a giant among DUers and fellow Dean supporters.

Kephra passed away a year ago this past Sunday.

Here is Momma Kef's thread:

1. He wall always be missed by me, that's for sure
I was so sad that I couldn't make it to the funeral. I would have loved to be there.

I never met him, but we had some awesome conversations.

3. Kef was much loved
and I include myself in that number.

This must be a terrible time for his mother. I ache for her. Revisiting the anniversary of your child's death must be unbelievably horrible.

But we loved him. And she must be wonderful to have raised such a decent man.

Khash.

8. I love you Kheph.
I think of you all the time. You are still doing good works in this world because you still inspire us.

We miss you so much.

:hi:

10. For you
Isis saith - I have come to be a protector unto thee. I waft unto thee air for thy nostrils, and the north wind which cometh forth from the god Tem unto thy nose. I have made whole for thee thy windpipe. I make thee to live like a god. Thine enemies have fallen under thy feet. I have made thy word to be true before Nut, and thou art mighty before the gods.

11. Best DUer ever, ever
I miss you my friend Khephra, thank you for making me a better person all the way around...the silence here since you are gone...but your words are safe in my heart forever. The light is and has been and will always be on in the window for you...





Scott had class, kindness, sharps, strength. Which he so willingly shared with anyone. Anyone.

Thank you Indiana Green for this, he loved you.

Alyce

14. I regret that I never told him
That I regarded him as a spiritual brother. I don't often feel that way about people, and I certainly don't know how to articulate it without fear of sounding like a weirdo, but he was one of those people. He had so much more to offer than he ever got back from the world. I had the greatest respect for him, and I miss him.

:cry:

17. I never knew Kheph, but I've heard every DUer who did
wax eloquent over him. He sounds like one of the ultimate DUers. That thread you linked to blew me away, that his mother could just put it out there so bluntly. I feel very deeply for this community's loss, and I deeply regret not having known such a man.

:patriot:

19. Yep...
I miss him as well. I still have the last message he sent in my inbox, I'd been offline for a while and PM'ed him to catch up on things. It's damn sad.

22. One last kick for an old friend
I wish Kef were still with us, there is so much to do to get the good people elected or reelected in '06, and then we have to rally around a candidate that represents our values, hopes, and aspirations in '08.

Shalom, Kef!
