David Welter of C/R Fine Woodworking – Krenov’s school – wrote to let me know that: “Those wishing to make a donation may do so by making a check out to the College of the Redwoods, with a notation of “Krenov Scholarship” on the memo line.”
It may be mailed to:
CR Fine Woodworking

“Awards from that fund are made annually to worthy students in need, as determined by the Fine Woodworking staff.”

Krenov was the first person I read that could put into words what I felt about wood as a beautiful material, and so much more.
Thanks for your comment David. We will make a contribution on your behalf.

Krenov was able to put to words ideas that are often diffucult to express. Thanks for everything
Ideas, ability and purpose. Skills that will be missed.
