Hello Friends and Family of Peter Kubiniec, aka PK,

We have received the soil from Peter’s composted remains. We can mail you a pouch or arrange to get it to you in the Seattle area. Please consider posting on PK’s memorial page where you spread the soil or if you used it to nourish new plantings. We like hearing about special places you shared with Peter and how you are remembering him. For soil, please contact us at pskmemorial2024@gmail.com

We have designated a memorial tree in the Seattle Arboretum. This pin should get you to the tree, but you may want the photo too because sometimes the pins are not super accurate. The tree is old and wise, but also a bit goofy and fun, a good mix to remember Peter.

We miss Peter terribly and love hearing from his friends. Send us a line some time.

Bob, Ginger, Sophie, Oscar, and Charlie
