Absolutely yes, you have our permission. I know he would prefer you show the best possible version, so I will look this week for the file.
Thank you,

> Hi Debbie, I am so sorry for the loss of Robert I deeply loved his work although I never met Robert. I had just recently written him an email about my wanting to show his film Marking Time in Havana this December. I never heard back. I have shown his work there before in the past and would like permission to show the work this year. I am sure he would give me permission. The film is on vimeo and we can download that for the festival unless there is a high quality digital file somewhere. Here is a form letter that I sent out to the filmmakers that I wanted to show. Can I have  your permission to show this film there.

>> Hi everyone,

>> I'm Rob's sister and frequent collaborator. I reach out to you today to share one of the many films Rob made in 2017. This film is called SHRINE. It captures the moments after my 18 year old son Lucas' memorial service. Rob lost his nephew, my son, on Sept 11, 2017 to sudden death of unknown cause (viral myocarditis), and his profound grief is poured into every film he made since.

He had last been seen heading to Franklin Park near his home Thursday evening. Today a search party found his body in the park. No cause of death has been reported yet.

>>> Rob has been a constant presence at experimental film festivals around the world for nearly twenty years now. I know I first screened one of his films at CUFF in 2001. I met him for the first time at Media City in I believe 2009. He was a kind, talented, prolific and generous man.
