I opened this morning's mail to learn of the death of John from David.
John was a longtime contributor to the small press magazine "Lilliput Review," in which he published over 20 poems and a number of pieces of art, including the cover of the current issue.
In 19 years of publishing I may say that John's voice and vision were truly unique. His words arrested the reader. They made s/he stop and think about the context of things, all things, and how we do and don't fit into that context.
I am deeply sorry for the loss of his family and friends and am very pleased to hear that his life will be celebrated.
Though we never met, I can say that John touched me deeply through his work. I know this is true for the reader's of "Lilliput," who have often commented on that work.
He will be missed and please know that his work will continue to be celebrated.
best,
Don Wentworth
