Dear Olivia

I met Ariel perhaps 20 years ago, and he was a very generous person, kind, and eager to share his love of

jazz and art. I had not seen him since then, but returning from a trip to Oaxaca on Thursday, read his memorial in the paper. I am honored to have met such a true, gentle, good man, and I am very glad that he had such a wonderful daughter to love and be loved by. "Birth is not the Beginning, Life is not the End," a

Chinese proverb. I wish you peace in love. Sincerely,

Nadine Kariya

Max - you will always be remembered with fondness as a funny, witty and caring friend to many in your graduating City High Class. The Class of '71 sends well wishes to you above. Peace is now with you.

Libby, Ariel was a real friend and we thank him for bringing you into our life. He had many friends and he shared them with us. He did not forget us when we left the farm on Vashon and he is one of the few that would come to visit us when we moved to Nisqually.

We will miss him very much!
