My daughter Emma and I are very sad to hear about Conrad's death, which we just found out about. I feel fortunate that I was able to have many talks with him during his time in Bangor, although they were not always easy discussions. Conrad was truly an unforgettable person. He was passionate and highly principled, and was fiercely opposed to injustice against the powerless and penniless. Conrad insisted on raising questions, many of which could not be easily answered. We will make a donation...

Conrad was one of those few people I had to chase intellectually. It was hard to keep up and I marveled at the keenness of his mind. He was also a good guy, thoughtful and he often called to say hello wherever he moved to. He zigged when society zagged and that was why he was so memorable. When they told him he had to have his hair a certain length at work-he solved that with a wig-orange in color. We spent months studying NLP in Connecticut. He moved to Boston, Thailand, New York, Maine...

I wish I knew about this guy in a today sense. What a loss, he was very smart.

Conrad made me fall down, laughing, during a game of tag back in High School. He was giving chase and lowly intoned, "Luuuuuke, I am your faaaather." Conrad was mind-bendingly smart, insightful, and a wonderful person. I have nothing but fond memories of him and am deeply saddened by his passing.
