To this day as an adult in my mid-40s, two of the biggest funerals I have ever attended were the funerals of Dan Hubbell and Bill Kennedy.  An amazing out pouring of love for both.

I hope the anon from Cleveland 76-77 will choose a user name and post some more. I was Cleveland Seed 78, so I would share your memories.

It was a beautiful old Catholic orphanage, I think. Remember the statues of saints in the reception area, surrounded by ivy? Very surreal.

Oh, and just so I don't hijack this thread let me add Ray K. to the list of post-Seed death rembrances. I lived with him when he started an affair with another former staff member, which caused a whole lot a shit. I understand that he has died; I saw that posted elsewhere on this site.

Ray did pass away of some illness a few years ago.

Billy was 2 years ahead of me at Holy Name school in Gulfport & he was always looked up to as a leader, of course at that time it was a leader of juvenile delinquents. I remember he was quick witted and sharp tongued and of course being a 6th grader when he was an 8th grader in much awe of his grade school "power & might".

I did not even realize he was in the Seed until after I had graduated myself and saw him one evening at the movie theatre at tyrone mall and we had a chance to talk, and then it seemed almost as fast he was gone. At that time Hodgkins Lymphoma did not have the incredibly high cure rate that it has now...

Dan was in the "downtown" group of old-timers that Robin and others have talked about, the guys (many staff grads like Mike & Bob R**** & Dana D******) were a part of this group that rented the house down by Bayfront medical center. I remember Dan as such a kind, and gentle person who had such a great sense of humor and loved to have fun, I heard he had moved to Lauderdale to be on staff at the Seed there and then it seemed not long after that the tragic news of his death shocked those of us in St Pete who had known & loved Dan. I have talked with many other Seedlings and there are still questions and different opinions as to what happened. All I knew is that both of these great guys were gone, too fast and too soon before their time...

They are still missed...

GregFL:
So, Dan Hubbell was on Staff when he shot himself in the head?

Also, does anyone know the name of the kid that shot himself in 1973 before group?
