In Memoriam |
We are saddened by the recent passing of Brian Rehrig. As Executive Director of Fields Pond Foundation, Brian was a long-time Greenbelt supporter and friend. In the words of Greenbelt's Chris LaPointe, "Brian's support of conservation work across the region has had a lasting impact on the environment and the people who enjoy the places he helped to protect. He was kind, caring, creative and thoughtful, always genuinely interested in what we were working on. He will be missed." Brian H. Rehrig → |
