We have lost a friend and a great pipe maker.

Steffen Mueller passed this weekend, leaving a void in our communtiy while leaving us better for his contributions to it.

Steffen was a creative artist and an innovative pipe maker. His stunning designs amazed us and his work has even been honored with a museum display. But we too have been honored to have had him amoungst us, albeit for too short a time.

He will be missed and we are enriched by that which he has left behind for us to enjoy.
