On Fishers Pond

<p>This is a beautifully written tribute to an incredibly special and generous man.<br /><strong>– Emma Amiad</strong><br /><em>Founding president <br />Vashon Maury Island Audubon Society</em></p><p>Fisher Pond remains one of the most generous and precious of gifts to our community. The Vashon Land Trust is honored to steward it. Laurie Stewart’s book is a wonderful reminder of Bill’s philosophy––that Nature knows what she’s doing.<br /><strong>– Tom Dean</strong><br /><em>Executive Director Vashon-Maury Land Trust</em></p><p>Laurie Stewart has woven a warm delightful surprising portrait of Bill Fisher from shared memories of friends and neighbors revealing a private person with a great capacity for observing loving and stewarding his pond and its surrounds. Bill gave the community his beautiful pond. Laurie’s gentle descriptions and exquisitely remembered moments offer us a new gift: glimpses of the unusual man himself and his particular stewardship ethic.<br /><strong>– Rayna Holtz</strong><br /><em>Vashon-Maury Island Heritage Museum co-curator <br />Vashon Island’s Native People: Navigating Seas of Change<br />King County Library System librarian ret.</em></p>
