I was lucky to be able to attend the funeral service for my friend and mentor Jim Range this week. The service was held at Fletcher's Boat House along the Potomac River in Washington, D.C., just upriver from Georgetown.

About three hundred of us gathered to honor Jim. I saw many old friends and many who I consider family. Jim's spirit was alive and well and his life mission to save wild places is a mission all of us there agreed needs to be kept alive.

The pain was palpable from the quick and unexpected loss of this man that so many of us felt so close to. Take a few minutes to read more about him by going to http://www.jimrange.com
