Goodbye Diane :)


DianeTorr and Brent Ridge (last time I saw the Scottish lass)

Goodbye my good friend.  You were an amazing presence for years in my life, personally, and as a colleague.  Offering good humor, critique, insight, and a pinch of stubbornness to our conversations.  Your passion for risk-taking and compassion for the human condition will live on as best as I can embody those traits. I am soooooo glad we crossed paths and did so frequently and with such deep feeling.




Diane Torr
Artist and Gender Activist

born 10 November 1948; died 31 May 2017
