In Memoriam: John Tveten

Many of you may have already heard that the great naturalist John Tveten passed away Monday, October 12. A memorial for John will be held at Armand Bayou Nature Center on October 29 at 6:30 pm. John was a wonderful nature photographer and a talented artist and author. John, with his wife and partner Gloria, wrote Nature Trails, a column about nature that ran weekly in the Houston Chronicle. John and Gloria were recipients of the Synergy Award for Media in 2001. In lieu of flowers, the family has requested that contributions may be made to Armand Bayou Nature Center (http://www.abnc.org) or conservation organization of your choice.
