then, he will stay in our hearts forever.“

His family has sent a beautiful card with texts from florian. The one on
the front side reads:

„beginning

over is over

in the beginning there was no end.

so it was decided,

that beginning shall follow beginning,

forever.

over-is-over since means:

give space to new beginning.“

On the back side of the card, I read „today, his family and closest
friends have said good-bye to florian, full of gratitude, on the
evangelic cemetery of alt-schöneberg, berlin.“

With fond memories of florian who, with katharina and shirin,
magnificently held space for us when we visited them in Rodalquilar in
October 2007 full of sadness and shock as we had just received the news
of the death of my daughters and their father and spouse, and who was my

Re: [OSList] florian fischer has passed away

2015-10-30 Thread Koos de Heer via OSList
Thank you Peggy for reminding me. I was there too in Berlin in 2000 and at the 
Swenmark gathering in 2003. I remember Florian as a very gentle and at the same 
time very dedicated person. And also very creative. He could challenge my 
assumptions in a way that was very inspiring and at the same time a bit 
unsettling. I guess that is the way it should be. 

Not having seen him for over 10 years I can't say that I miss him, but I 
celebrate his life and I cherish the memories.

Re: [OSList] florian fischer has passed away

2015-10-30 Thread Peggy Holman via OSList
Like Chris, I fell in love with Florian the first time I met him. It was at 
OSonOS in Berlin in 2000. Among his many gifts, he was a poet. I turned a 
pamphlet he created of his poems 
 about 
Open Space into a pdf. He called it "Weying in Open Space". He coined the term 
weying to speak of identity grounded in “we”. From a paper he wrote:

 When boundaries connect as well as separate, then it is not a matter of here 
and there, not of we and you, but rather a matter of the distinction within the 
unit, it is a matter of unity in the network of complex structures.

One thing that impressed me about Florian was his learning more English so that 
he could participate more in the Open Space community. I saw him at several 
OSonOS gatherings, including Vancouver, BC in 2001 and at the “Svenmark OSOnOS 
(Sweden/Denmark), where these pictures were taken in 2003:

http://peggyholman.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/Florian-at-OSonOS-DenmarkDSCN3727.jpg
 

 

I always had the sense that anything could happen when Florian was around. He 
will be missed.

Appreciatively,
Peggy
