Al Levin died in his sleep in Maplewood on February 13, 2006. Al was an active member of South Mountain Peace Action for many years. He was always willing to contribute his time and energy to whatever was needed, whether it was standing in front of the Post Office or Starbucks with petitions or flyers in single-digit cold, going house-to-house with candidate surveys, sharing his ideas and wisdom at planning meetings, traveling to New York for a demonstration or speaking before the Maplewood Township Committee on behalf of a resolution against war in Iraq -- Al was always there for all of us. The New York Times and the Star-Ledger have documented Al's celebrated career as newsman and documentary producer [http://www.beaboutpeace.com/archives/2006/02/smpa_member_al.html] Al Levin's brilliant insights, his commitment and energy and his generous and loving spirit will be deeply missed by everyone. South Mountain Peace Action extends its deepest condolences to the Levin family. We will hold a memorial service for Al as part of our re-dedication of the Peace Memorial at the Ethical Culture Society at the end of our second annual Be About Peace Day, on Saturday, March 18th.
