Caryn - I spoke with Charlie last evening.  He's suggested that during the Ecumenicon Plant Walk at CLG, that the participants plant a patch of Rosemary on the property in memory of Rosemary.

I told him I'd pass along the idea to you...

Rosemary Kooiman and her late husband Abe were the founders of the Nomadic Chantry Of The Gramarye in 1992 one year after CLG received its charter.  Together they led and ecclectic Wiccan 3 years study course and a coven.  Rosemary was also a trustee on the board of Ecumenicon.  Her wisdom and wit will be truely missed in the community.

You can read about the Chantry at Nomadic Chantry on WitchVox

And there is an article and picture of Rosemary at : The Wiccan Pagan TImes about Samhain.

Rosemary, may you and Abe sit in the company of all the Shinning Ones.
