I know this is late, I just learned the news. I hope his loved ones may still read this. Page taught me creative writing at UCSC in the early 70's. As a very young man who happened to be without a father, he became somewhat of a father figure to me. I will condense this little anecdote. Later, I decided I wanted to go to medical school. I asked Page if he would write me a letter of reference. He said yes. "I wrote a rave review," he said. During my admissions interview at CU the interviewer opened my file and spent a long time reading. Then, he looked up and said, "Well, Page Stegner certainly writes a good letter." And I got in. Now a retired MD.

Thank you, Page, for teaching me to scout the river, how to portage when the situation is impassable, and to look for safe eddies. I hope you have found yours. Much love to you, Lynn.

As long time Greensboro neighbors, we are very, very sad to learn of Page's passing. He was one-of-a-kind and a man who will be missed by many, especially those of us on the hill in Greensboro. Condolences from the Fraser/Bayles/Steinfeld families.

We are sorry to learn of the passing of Stuart, but grateful for his service to our nation as Deputy Director of Peace Corps programs in Ecuador and Venezuela.

Crossing to Safety is a brilliant literary work. My late father introduced me to this book and other Stegner works. I am deeply grateful for this family's legacy.

I had an inherant regard for the wild - as any son of the West must. But it was the STEGNER line that taught me why. I am permanently grateful.
