In Memorium
On December 8th
the SBWC community lost Tyke Crowley, a dear friend, supporter and fellow
traveler on the writer’s journey. Tyke
gave us many gifts: his warmth, his sense of humor, his passion for life and
living, and his story. Tyke was a believer in stories; in the way they feed the
soul, in their power to inform and to inspire, and as benefactions. His was a very
large story to tell, filled with heart and purpose, and his dedication to
telling it was prompted by the most selfless of motives: to share with us what
he had learned on his journey. Like the returning traveler, Tyke brought us the
gift of his wisdom and experience, writing with grace, wit and feeling about
cystic fibrosis, the struggles and unexpected rewards of living with a lifelong
illness, and his determination to make each day count. We will miss him. We will miss his open mind, his generous
heart, and his fierce and joyful spirit - a life well and truly lived, and a story, that for the rest of us, goes on.
