Rain Rien (1950-2013)

From Rain Rien's partner:
Rain Rodgers (Rain Rien) has completed his journey on earth now... he left about 11:30 this morning (24-10-2013). He had a peaceful night, after such a long struggle with colon cancer. I miss him so much already.
I know many people have been touched by his big heart, wild creativity, and generous spirit. I am happy that he is at peace now.

    On Facebook the message that is in the heading of the group is published by Nancy, his partner. We lost a dear friend again.

    Still looking for the year that Rain Rien (Rain Rodgers) was born and will add it to the name of the group. The news is fresh and I realize we lost a dear old friend that has done so much.

    In this group I hope we can share some of the information we all have and can publish it. Also I will publish details here when I have them.

    Over the years I have saved the images that Rain Rien created. I already have published a few here. He is always sharp and funny. He knew so much and we will miss that all for sure..

    What fun and good humor that Rain Rien always created.

    He will dearly be missed.

    As a newbie to IUOMA, it was Rain Rien that first invited me

    to his fun groups that he had just made back in 2009:

    "Cow Ear Muffs Buffallo Affirmations "

    "Recycling Mail Art"

    ...Those were the days, my friend!

    Bertolt Brecht:
    Lines from "The Doubter"


    "Are you in the stream of happening?"

    "Do you accept all that develops?"

    "Are you too ambiguous?"

    "Each possible misunderstanding is YOUR responsibility."

    "Are you TOO UNAMBIGUOUS----taking the contradictions out of things? (If so, what you say is useless.  Your thing has no life in it.)"
