We wish to express our sympathy on the loss this year of another member of the Willamette Valley Mushroom Society, Duane Morris. Duane had been a member of the Society for at least seven or eight years.
According to Halle Toman, Duane was a quiet, gentle man who loved nature. She also remembers him for the large bucket of daffodils he always brought in the Spring to share with the other members.
For those that missed the official notice, it is reprinted here.

He was an active member of the Talbot Community Church for more than 50 years. His hobbies included rock collecting and wood-working (and mushrooms-editor).
He is survived by his brother, Ivan of Salem.
