W elcome to issue number six
o f the Edge. You w ill notice
that we are increasing the
quantity o f the paper, as we
continue to work on it s quality.
This month the Astoria
Visual Arts, Inc. list o f artists
and galleries in the area is
included in this issue, in hopes
that given better access to artists
people w ill be more able to
support the arts com m unity on
the Upper Left Edge of
Am erica.
We w ould like to thank our
readers who have written and
asked us to send them the
paper, and the businesses who
have sent us ads. To both those
groups we say Where's the
m oney!
We know it is our own fault for
being vague, so lets make it
simple.

The daily images of folks about our town are
rare It might seem as if they occur everyday
- but never in the same way these may
happen just this day To honor you, Donald,
and all those gone from sight, I'll stop a little
and take note of the rare and beautiful snap
shots around me

As I recount these snapshots" I think of the
numbers of times I've been startled at the
sight of Ev Browning only to realize it was
only someone who looked like Ev Ev's gone
Awhile ago he was in lots of pictures Now
only in pictures in my head
So it is with Donald
Giving, dedicated,
dependable, stubborn, faithful, oddly funny
Donald Kontz His absence sharply reminds
me of how fragile life is Oh. it might be easy
to say how schmaltzy it sounds regardless
of the sound - life is precious
