Fr. Diesel Dogma's Memorial Scholarship
Father Diesel Dogma was a founding member of the Russian River Sisters. He was a lovely young man who truly wanted to help make our community a better place to live. Although struggling with the virus himself, Fr. Diesel worked tirelessly for issues surrounding HIV/AIDS. Fr. Diesel and his life partner Guard Trouser Mouse relocated to Sedona Arizona. Once there he was dismayed by the amount of ignorance surrounding transmission of HIV/AIDS and other STDs. He vowed to make a difference and towards this endeavor the pair created the first safer sex awareness outreach program in their area. They were instrumental in the creation of similar programs in the cities of Phoenix, AZ and Alberqueque, NM.
The Russian River Sisters' Memorial Fund is now named in his honor. This memorial fund is available at the request of the community to assist with final expenses, and provides a niche at Santa Rosa Memorial Park as a final resting place for the remains of the homeless or those community members who otherwise need financial assistance upon their death.
Fr. Diesel will forever live on in the hearts and minds of the international sisterhood.
