<br><font size=4 face="Times New Roman">Dear Colleagues of Adrian Hooke:<br>
<br>
I am honored to receive any communications that you wish to send regarding
Adrian. (Some folks have already sent them.)<br>
<br>
You can send such to my email </font><font size=4 color=blue face="Times New Roman"><u><br>
</u></font><a href=mailto:merle.mckenzie@gmail.com><font size=4 color=blue face="Times New Roman"><u>merle.mckenzie@gmail.com</u></font></a><font size=4 face="Times New Roman"><br>
<br>
or to the home address<br>
Merle McKenzie<br>
29660 Zuma Bay Way<br>
Malibu, CA 90265<br>
USA<br>
<br>
or calls if you prefer to <br>
310-589-9802. <br>
<br>
I have treasured the emails that I have received so far, as I find that
the international community's appreciation for Adrian matches mine. I will
be putting such sentiments together for his children (and for me too).
<br>
<br>
In lieu of any flowers, if someone <i>really</i> still wants to do something
more, Adrian would have liked it if any such expression of donation would
be sent to an organization that assists in rescuing animals. Two such possibilities
are below:</font><font size=4 color=blue face="Times New Roman"><u><br>
</u></font><a href="https://donate.aspca.org/donate/donations/website/website_honor.aspx?PlacementID=2471532" target=_blank><font size=4 color=blue face="Times New Roman"><u>https://donate.aspca.org/donate/donations/website/website_honor.aspx?PlacementID=2471532</u></font></a><font size=4 face="Times New Roman"><br>
or</font><font size=4 color=blue face="Times New Roman"><u><br>
</u></font><a href="https://hsi.netdonor.net/ea-action/action?ea.client.id=104&ea.campaign.id=16962" target=_blank><font size=4 color=blue face="Times New Roman"><u>https://hsi.netdonor.net/ea-action/action?ea.client.id=104&ea.campaign.id=16962</u></font></a><font size=4 face="Times New Roman"><br>
which may be easier for those outside of the US.<br>
<br>
Or frankly any local animal shelter or rescue organization that the person
might have locally. <br>
<br>
The reason I mention this, is that some have asked for such an option.
When we made out our wills last year Adrian decided that the answer to
the question (if everyone on the will is deceased, where should the estate
go?) with his choice of the ASPCA. <br>
<br>
I had watched him do the occasional animal or bird rescue, (a lost cormorant
in Malibu that used its beak to nip him for his troubles, or a tiny new
bird that had fallen out of its nest in Alexandria VA). He had a lovely
soft spot for other creatures. <br>
<br>
Again, I know that he appreciates all the sadness of his passing; he treasured
all of you as well. <br>
<br>
We will continue to miss him. He was unique. <br>
<br>
With great respect and appreciation, <br>
Merle McKenzie</font>
