GA 246 — 2 February 1924, Dornach

84. Memorial address for Ernst Keller (1892-1924)

My dear friends!

This night our dear member Mr. Keller passed away in Basel. He was in our midst for a long time, in recent times very seriously ill, faithfully cared for by the doctors of our Clinical Therapeutic Institute in Arlesheim.

I take great satisfaction in having been able to visit him just a few hours before his death. And I assume that a number of you, my dear friends, also knew our friend Keller. In any case, everyone feels connected to him in their thoughts as anthroposophists, and I ask you to rise from your seats as a sign that we want to continue to connect our thoughts with his thoughts in his spiritual existence.

I really feel the need in my heart to express to the brother present here that in our feelings we feel connected with our friend who has passed away from the physical plane.
