My heart is deeply saddened to learn the news of my friend Wawecha’s untimely passing. He was a young man with playful and childlike energy and at the same time he was a dedicated, serious and intense individual who gave fully of himself to make this world a better place for all beings with a special focus on the children. Wawecha will forever be remembered as a dear friend and brother, a devoted son, a gifted medicine person, a craftsman and creator of functional & sacred works, a connector of light workers, a sacred child of Mother Earth. Your legacy of love, truth, beauty & service to all relations will blaze bright in my heart until we meet again my friend.
