I was a latecomer to his works and insights and was shocked to find that I missed tbe chance of meeting him or at least having a phone conversation with him. A couple years ago after reading Windows of Brimnes and Islands and finding out about the writers workshops on Iceland, I emailed him inviting him to my friends Nature Life school in Solund Norway. I was even so forward as to suggest a possible location for a workshop trip! Well, I did not get any response, and sadly I did not follow through. Boy I wish I could let his family know how important his insights have been to helping me appreciate my new found life on the farm and on an island off the coast of western Norway. I actually learned a lot of NyNorsk from Windows and Icelandic!

After I finished,"The Heart Can Be Filled Anywhere on Earth" I felt I was given new lenses from which to see the world. I think this book has an incredible message to send Americans in this day and age of greed, fashion, glamor, and media spin. What an amazing book and what an amazing author. He was an American treasure. I hope that his name and his books will grow in popularity as time goes on. - Douglas Sat, 28 Nov 2009 05:26:06 +0100 http://www.billholm.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=46:about-bill-holm&catid=&Itemid=53#comment-166 Hello friends and fans of Bill Holm, Classical Minnesota Public Radio is broadcasting Giving Thanks: A Celebration of Fall, Food and Gratitude on Thursday, Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 26 at 9 a.m. Tune in to 99.5 Classical MPR in the Twin Cities (or find your station here) or listen online at classicalmpr.org to hear Classical MPR’s John Birge host two hours of reflections on the meaning of gratitude and the blessings of Thanksgiving through words and music.

I lived 3 miles away from his Uncle Abo and we did business with Abo buying & selling feeder pigs. I am 52 as i write this and Bill came into my life in the late 60's, early 70's. He was quietly suspected by all God-fearing farmer parents at the time as an entity unknown to SW MN at the time, but his demeanor and very self brought him past all that and made him a cherished son. Bill was playing piano at supper clubs at the time, well before his days teaching at SSU, trip to China, home in Iceland. My last communication with Bill was painting his house in 1977 which was a hoot of dipping into the cellar for a bottle of beet wine and taking challenginging ladder balance competitions after smoking that which resided in the sheet music space under his piano stool. Dont hold this against ol Bill, SW MN was dearly begging for someone of his charachter but hadnt realized it yet. A couple years prior to that I was overseas with the army and had a postcard from Bill one day. He was walking the Aran Islands of Scotland or Ireland, just moseying around pickin up rocks I like to think, planning his next strategy and happily disecting what had brought him to such great fortune in life. When addressing Bill Holm you really should include Daren Gislason. They were cousins and lived on seperate levels of Bills house forever. Between the 2 of them I feel privaledged in that they both gave me some of my formative outlook on life in general. Daren taught me to love reading. Bill was my first show of a person totally into music. A talk with either was always as a one-on-one, no superiority, nuthing to go home feeling lectured about but rather given the freedom to accept and use as you will or wont and drop the rest as you saw fit. A GREAT BREATH OF FRESH AIR AND INDIVIDUAL THINKING. Hope Valhalla is all you want it to be Bill. - Jeff Pesek Thu, 18 Jun 2009 13:12:19 +0100 http://www.billholm.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=46:about-bill-holm&catid=&Itemid=53#comment-66 As a native Minneotan, it's nice to see the words spilling forth to honor the man who so loved the little town in which he was raised. Growing up, I always knew who Bill was - he was the guy that wrote about boxelder bugs - but I never really knew what Bill was. Sure I knew he wrote poems and essays, but that seemed like his job - like my dad going to the bank to work, or my mom going to school to teach - just the thing he did during the day. To have books lying around the house that bore his name didn't strike me as unusual. I never would've guessed he was beloved the world over. I was reminded of this small town naivete as I heard my parents talk about today's funeral. They couldn't believe that two (of the many) bouquets sent to honor Bill came from China ("China, Michael!"), couldn't believe Garrison Keillor would come "all the way from St. Paul" to pay last respects to his dear friend and couldn't believe that tiny St. Paul's - with a seating capacity of 150 - was ill-suited to hold all of the mourners that turned out to send Bill off with a few of his favorite Icelandic hymns. Perhaps those of us that passed by him in the cereal aisle at Finnegan's - the only grocery store in Minneota - or ran into him at the post office didn't fully grasp that we were living with a legend and maybe we'll live to regret that, but we can be assured that he wouldn't have wanted it any other way. Rest in peace, Bill. - Michael Nelson Fri, 03 Apr 2009 09:37:15 +0100
