To all those who loved and followed Mr Callenbach, we share our deepest condolences:
Mr. Callenbach had great ideas regarding the earth such as recycling and caring for the earth with its limited resources. He did his utmost in helping people realize the earth was in serious danger then and now. There were many things he encouraged people to be aware of and to be sensitive to our lovely earth.
He worked for what many people hope for the earth; however, the Bible actually shows that humans need help regarding the earth's complexities and intricacies. Jeremiah 10:23. The desires of humans who are made of the earth will be fulfilled. Many try to stop the deterioration of the earth and thus, stop the misuse of the earth's resources. What are the results? Mainly failure even though most are sincere.
He discussed a Paradise of the Pacific Northwest; however, the Creator of the Universe promises not only a Paradise there,but also, a Paradise earth wide globally. God created this earth. Should we not look to him for the solutions?
When we pray The Lord's Prayer, do we not pray for God's kingdom (government) to come and that God's will be done on earth as it is in heaven?
Matthew 6:9
How wonderful that we do not have to reinvent the wheel! God has purposed all along that he will fulfill our desire to live in peace, security, happiness, good health, eternal life on a Paradise earth. Psalm 37: 10, 11, 29; Revelation 21:3-5; Isaiah 65: 20-25.
Not only that, but what about those who have already died and others in the meantime die without experiencing such blessings? Did not the Christ restore life to some who died including his friend, Lazarus? Was that not his demonstrating of his authority, lovingkindness, and his capability for a later time? John 11th chapter. Jesus said that he would later call those in the memorial tombs and the dead would come out. John 5: 28,29
Yes, we can keep close to our hearts not only those promises soon to be fulfilled, but also, your memories of Mr. Callenbach and other beloved ones. Also, In the meantime we can do the best we can to care for the earth and its resources with the sure hope of living forever in a Paradise global earth very soon. Did not Jesus say the meek would inherit the earth? Matthew 5: 5
P.S. Some will go to heaven, but most humans will live on the earth.

Pete Fornatale Obituary announcement - Posted by Earlene and George James

We send our condolences to the family and friends for the loss of Mr. Fornatale. No doubt he had much more to contribute to the music world. Death destroys ones gifts and comes much too soon. Life is so tenuous like the mist of fog.
Whatever faith one has, hope for the future is guaranteed by the most sacred book in the world, the Bible. It's author, God, never intended for humans to die. Because of Adam and Eve, we die due to the inheritance of sin. We were given the desire to live forever by our heavenly Father and he promises that the righteous and the unrighteous will live again. Romans 5:12, Acts 24: 15
We can take comfort that our loved ones sleeping in death are waiting to be awakened, not having suffered while sleeping to arise in the resurrection. John ll: John 11: 12,13, 38-44. God's original purpose was for all to live on a paradise earth with all the beauty of the flowers, trees, animals and humans. We will be happy, healthy and at peace and security according to Revelation 21:3,4.
May you take comfort in looking forward to seeing your loved ones again. The wonderful hope of seeing them helps take the sting out of death. Our enemy death will be destroyed once and for all and not cause us grief and sorrow any more. 1Cor 15:26. God's purpose will be fulfilled; nothing nor anyone can stop it.
