I was so sad to hear of the death of Richard Outram. Fresh out of University I worked as the secretary for the CBC Staging Dept. in 1984 in the basement of Studio 7. The sub basement surroundings were so dreary and the work often repetitive. A few stagehands made the difference for me coming around for a chat and a joke brightening up my daylight deprived days. Richard Outram was one of those wonderful souls that understood that what you do is not necessarily who you are.Richard Outram was always so wonderful to talk to.He would stop by for a chat and was sharply witty yet the perfect gentleman. I always wondered how he chose CBC staging as a career. I saw him as more the tweed wearing professor type.
When I left CBC he gave me a copy of one of his books, Turns. I was looking through it this afternoon. Today, Sunday Morning aired the interview Richard gave Michael Enright a couple of years ago. His voice was just as I remembered. Discreetly charming, funny and a man that was immensely yet humbly talented. I wish him well and eternal peace.
Also...if Jonathan Churchill reads this...thank you to you as well. I still have the original print that you gave me when I left CBC.My three young sons like to look at it.A sad day today hearing of Richard Outram and his lonely choice but I am very grateful to have met him along with a number of his merry staging band at CBC so long ago.

there is an amazing interview wiht Outram on this morning's CBC Sunday Edition. It was the last piece and aired here in NL at 12:05 so will air in your kitchen at 11:35 am.

it's about 20 minutes and is quite remarkable. he reads a few poems and talks about influences and... just listen to it.

 Agree entirely with A Poet below...romanticizing tragedy reduces it to a parody of itself. RIchard's death is terribly sad as is the death of his collaborator the artist Barbara Howard due to a "medical mishap" --a euphemism for a bad healthcare system that puts people's lives at risk.

This is indeed crushing news and a terrible loss. Some may find this next comment inappropriate, as this may not be the time to quibble over such things; however, I have a hard time squaring "grief" and "suicide" - not without also mentioning "depression" and "mental illness."

The naming of these things is something intensely important to me. Grief may last a lifetime, but depression can be treated - and, one is always hopeful to think, other loses such as this can be prevented.

I also note that the title on this page includes "...on Poetic Practice." Depression is something writers seem to be particularly susceptible to - perhaps it is past time to talk about the needed interventions and supports.

I apologize again if anyone has been offended by this note in this space at this time. I say these things with the utmost sensitivity. I was heartbroken to hear this news - and to be reminded of other loses I wish hadn't occurred.

I was just on my way to a yearly gathering of present and ex CBC stagehands when I happened to look up Richard Outram name on the intranet. Richard retired from the CBC over 10 years ago after working there for over 30 years. He had worked in the Design Department as a Staging Crew Leader.

Every year at the Gathering one of his poems is read in his honor, and the honor of the ragged bunch of Hands who had worked for the corp over the last 50 years, I am not sure if the poem was ever published. There is one copy which I know of.

The Staging Brothers will raise a toast today, this Robbie Burns day to Richard, we will remember him well.

Good idea, G. That's a whole lot better looking page than what I ended up jerry-rigging a link to. I'll use yours.

George,

Your eulogy is lovely and your poem beautiful; I did not know Outram or his work but if he elicits such responses, he must have been a fine man. There is a quiet, private gap when a person dies that nothing can fill. I'm very sorry for your loss.

I didn't know Outram, nor do I know his work very well. But I can say that if folks need a reminder or an idea of what kind of talent was lost with his death, those broadsheets that Twinkle linked to are a good place to start.

The poem George wrote for him is pretty fucking fine.
