Hello everyone,

I hope your summer is going well
and you are finding time to enjoy.

This message is not easy to share
because we have recently lost an important
member of our Trillium community.

We were all sad when Anne, Chloe and Richard Childress
decided to move out of the area
at the end of this school year.

However, Anne unexpectedly died in her sleep
a few days after they arrived at their new home.

They are with Richard's family,
and a memorial service is scheduled this week in Big Bear.

Trillium will be hosting an event at the school
in memory of Anne next Wednesday from 2:00-5:00 PM.
We invite people to come and share.

* Hospice of Humboldt will have a representative here for support
*"Talking about death with children" information will be available
for anyone who needs it
* A Memory Book will be created for the family, and
* A collage will be made specifically for Chloe.

This has all been very difficult for Chloe,
and Richard has asked everyone to restrain
from sending her condolences.

This allows the family to attend to
Chloe without additional upset.
We will focus our efforts on sending Chloe
loving memories from her time at Trillium.

The memory book will be sent to Richard.

If you have any questions please contact the school: 822-4721.
Or, you can contact Marianne, Michalea, or Rhoni.
