This post is dedicated to my friend Hymo who recently left this plane of existence. Although he has moved on he is not lost and will always be a part of those of us who knew him.

He was a man with a big loving heart who was not afraid to offer that love to his friends and to strangers or whoever he encountered on his journey. In fact Hymo was all about love and connection and it was almost impossible not to be touched by this big kid from NY. He was a free spirit who although in his final years struggled intensely, the light and love of his true being never ceased to shine. Hymo was a deep thinker and a deep feeler and he was always ready to trip out on just about any subject, well especially music and psychedelics He channeled the message and spirit of the Grateful Dead as if the spirit of Jerry had become a part of him. He was also a spiritual person who seemed to identify most with Love as a Divine expression. I feel incredibly fortunate to have received some of Hymos transmission, to have known him and shared the dream with him. For me Hymo embodied the most beautiful qualities of the 60s, he was a true hippie. He was a true lover and a true friend.

You’ve touched my heart my friend and I will never forget you. I hope we meet again soon wherever that may be…………sending you love and light always brother……
