| Beloved Community, Here are some updates to our scheduled events these coming days… and a longer explanation about Michael Lloyd-Billington and the unfolding process with him. Many of you have been close friends along the way…and some of you may be receiving this information for the first time. Michael has been an integral part of the Fort Collins community for over 20 years, as a yoga teacher, fitness trainer, Food Co-op member and employee, yoga philosophy and teacher trainer, spiritual counselor, friend and mentor to many, many fortunate people. He has also been one of my beloved partners for almost 5 years, and I am grateful! Michael has been navigating intense health challenges and chronic pain for over 12 years and has come to the moment when it is time to let his physical body die and let his soul fly into the next grand adventure. With the support of a great team of compassionate medical friends, he will be receiving Medical Aid in Dying this Wednesday, June 12th between 5 PM and 6 PM.
