Penny Harter on Bill Higginson



Bill Higginson


Back in October, I was very sad to share the news of the passing of haiku giant Bill Higginson. In a new post on Blogging Along Tobacco Road, comes a message from Penny Harter, his life companion and fellow haiku great. The message contains her thanks to all who have contacted her in these rough months.

Penny recounts a reading she presented to the Overlook Hospital community by way of giving back to them for all the care and support they provided. In it, she tells of the most wonderful dream she had of Bill which came to her the evening before the reading and was her first since his passing.

Please visit Blogging Along Tobacco Road and read this uplifting piece. I can't think of anything more in tune with the holiday season and with life itself.


best,
Don

Thank you again. This is when technology works best - when it connects us to each other and our messages in a very personal way that would not otherwise be possible.
