Immersed in Nature
Liam’s Obituary as printed in the Southampton Press on May 27, 2021

A group of Liam’s good friends imagined what they could do to honor their long friendships with him… and then realized The Quogue Wildlife Refuge - where Liam’s tiny toddler feet, so many years ago, launched his life-long passsion for trekking through wooded trails, often barefoot! He left many a footprint there throughout his life 💔
WE THANK YOU So Very, Very, Very Much : John, Spencer, Kristian, Alex, Jeff, Mike, Sean, Joe, Aditya & Jay !!
It is more difficult to retrieve Liam’s most recent work because🍎device is locked, no passcode.

Such Precious Memories . . .
It’s all about you, Liam ♾
Alexander…
Liam was an unique individual. Marie and Colm always allowed him to be who he was, and are the most loving parents I have ever known, and that is rare.
Brit…
Tons of memories. Shifting the school laptop blocks. Earlier on, playing Final Fantasy and Liam always coding bots for the win. Sitting next to him in Spanish class while chatting on his chat clent. Everything I hear Diplo/Major Lazer I think of him..
John…
I was really lucky to have a friend as smart, thoughtful and funny as Liam growing up. We did most everything together and got into so many antics, from our time at Quogue Wildlife Refuge to high school. I remember when he somehow figured out how to gain access to every computer and printer in our high school, and we proceeded to pull pranks on our teachers and classmates! We were always up to something and I was always amazed at how incredibly smart and talented Liam is. I will miss him dearly.

Sinead, Liam, and QT after another Brooklyn Block Party…
Yes, Liam on crutches❣
In our last moments together, the hospital disregarded the rules and let the four of us hold each other and speak to his spirit since a massive stroke prevented brain activity - the irony being how intensely intelligent Liam was from the start - I liked reminding him how he was sent to Suffolk Community College in sixth grade for his exceptional scores on achievement tests!
This is the song Sinead played at this time, at his side, by Sophie Xeon, who Liam met & was a huge fan and so saddened by that loss recently…listen
On Children
Kahlil Gibran - 1883-1931
And a woman who held a babe against her bosom said, Speak to us of Children.
And he said:
Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself.
They come through you but not from you,
And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.
You may give them your love but not your thoughts,
For they have their own thoughts.
You may house their bodies but not their souls,
For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.
You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you.
For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.
You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth.
The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite, and he bends you with his might that his arrows may go swift and far.
Let your bending in the archer’s hand be for gladness;
For even as He loves the arrow that flies, so He loves also the bow that is stable.
This is easier to read than it is to do…but “Do it anyway…” Like Mother Teresa said!
You can shed a tear that they are gone
Or you can smile because they lived.
You can close your eyes and pray they'll come back
Or you can open your eyes to see all they've left you.
Your heart can be empty because you don't see them
Or your heart can be full of the love you shared.
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live for yesterday
Or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.
You can remember them and only that they're gone
Or you can cherish their memory and let it live on.
You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back
Or you can do what they’d want -
Open your eyes, smile, love, and go on.
💖It is only with one’s heart that one can see clearly.
What is essential is invisible to the eye.👁🗨

The gentlest, healthiest, sweetest
chicken is
Liam’s chicken, Goldie
Like he said himself, she’s that way because she's
the one who got his special attention
as a baby chik, about six years ago.
She has never looked so down in all those years,
but she obviously feels this great loss too.

Liam’s & Sinead’s Lemonade Stand!!
Liam’s classic inquisitive pose 👀
Once it made its way to the road’s
edge, many NJ and GA cousins and local friends
had such bright and sunny summer
days selling refreshments, including
“sand pies” decorated with yard
flowers - those were the days!

Liam’s cat Rosa, showed up during the noisiest project with drills & saws screaming loud she was hungry and just a kitten, a few years ago ♥
When Liam lived in New Paltz
he really blazed trails there…
mountains, valleys, and streams, as well as some fun friends!
Liam is living on physically,
as well as spiritually,
because he
checked off organ-donor on his license.
We received a letter from LiveOnNY dated February 26, that one of Liam’s kidneys was donated to a 50year-old female and the other went to a male, 37 years old. It is with great hope that their bodies will accept these gifts, and allow them to live on. Surely they will want to dance at some point, maybe when they hear Electronica from another passionate DJ.
Liam's first favorite song was Sweet Dreams by Annie Lennox / Eurythmics, when he was about 5 years old - he just started spending time on the computer and we had a great video that went with it that was played more often than not ♾

Liam’s adopted friend Dan brought much joy ☮
Liam was mushroom farming for a few years - his favorite was Lion’s Mane, sautéed in butter with diced shallots.
To left, photo of one of Liam’s Lion’s Mane
He took an interest as a teenager photographing local mushrooms nearby and while living on Stony Brook campus.
This grew to a general research of all mushrooms, and identifying edible types. Lion’s mane mushrooms were his favorite as he would say they contain bioactive substances that benefit the body, especially the brain.
Liam began life curious, and never out-grew it.
His grandfather Lance “Pawp” shaped this wooden fish and his dad painted him in his classic inquisitive pose…we see him in everything. Everything that really matters in life, that is!
