Grief Ritual for Ian Nyquist

We gather in community to honor and grieve the passing of our brother. We gather to celebrate the life of our dear Ian Nyquist.

Join us on Tuesday, May 13 for a grief ritual facilitated by Josh Fox. This spave will be held with care.

Free & open to all.

Time: TBD

In addition, we are considering building an altar with flowers and a meditation spot at the place where Ian passed—a memorial and offering of love, remembrance, and peace.

If you feel called to contribute to this altar or help co-create the sacred space, please reach out so we can collaborate in planning this beautiful sit spot together.

Bring your presence, your memories, and anything that helps you feel connected.

More details to come

03/24/2025

We are in the process of organizing a memorial service for Ian. Once the dates are confirmed, we will share the details with everyone.

Ian’s extended community spans both North Carolina and Florida, and we want to make sure his friends and family have the opportunity to attend. Please share this post so that those who knew him can be informed.

If you’d like to be notified when the date is set, please leave a comment below.

Pictured is Ian with one of his best buddies Kumba. These two adored each other.

Yesterday, our dear friend Ian transitioned from this world.

We’ve decided to hold space during Song Church this morning for prayer, grieving, remembrance, and celebration of his life.

For those who knew Ian, his journey over the last many years wasn’t easy. We hope his soul is finally free.

Rest easy brother.

Join us anytime between 10:00-3:00 as we gather to plant flowers— to share stories, sing songs of healing and possibility, and celebrate the light of his soul.
