A Few Words: IN MEMORY OF HALIKU

A NOTE FROM THE SP STAFF
On Saturday, November 20, 2010, Chris Pruchnic (Haliku) lost his life in an ice-climbing accident in Colorado's Rocky Mountain National Park.

Haliku was a valued contributor to SP, but his worth went well beyond the pages he created. As is obvious in forum threads regarding his tragic death, Haliku was widely loved and respected for his character, his generosity, and his knowledge. His loss is a heavy blow to both those who knew him in real life and those who knew him only on SP. The SP staff sends its deepest condolences to his family and friends. We know that no words can heal this loss but hope that what was great about Haliku and his life will eventually soften the pain and inspire those that knew him.

This profile page will remain in honor of Haliku. Friends of his who wish to pay a short tribute to him here are encouraged to contact the staff.

Hours slide by like minutes. The accumulated clutter of day-to-day existence – the lapses of conscience, the unpaid bills, the bungled opportunities, the dust under the couch, the inescapable prison of your genes – all of it is temporarily forgotten, crowded from your thoughts by an overpowering clarity of purpose by the seriousness of the
task at hand.
