1 Reprinted in “In Celebration of the Life of Leland Harold Roloff (August 15, 1927–October 5, 2015),” a document photocopied and shared with attendees at a celebration on 21 November 2015, at Bloedale Hall, behind St. Mark's Cathedral in Seattle. Faithful readers of Dickinson will recognize the (fitting, for the occasion) substitution of sequel for species in the second line of this her poem 373, along with differences in typography.
