Default Sad News

It is with great sadness that I have to inform you of the passing of our friend Lew Waldman.
During surgery to remove a brain tumor in mid February he suffered a severe stroke. He passed away either last night, or this morning.

He was a good friend. He will be missed.

That just makes me sick.

However, thank you for the update Steve. Brain surgery like that is always very risky.

We are all diminished by his passing. Our loss...........

I got to know Lew through this forum as many people did in here. Thanks to Artzi I became good friends with Lew and found out he lives just a few minutes away from me. We always made the trip together to the Baltimore Arms Show. I missed him on this trip...a good man, a great friend and fellow collector.

My prayers to his wife Michelle, his son Seth and family

I've come to view the members of this Forum as a kind of extended family and some I now correspond with on a reasonably regular basis. With this very much in mind I am in total agreement with all the previous sentiments, a valuable member much missed. I extend my personal condolences to his nearest and dearest.
My Sincere Regards,
Norman.
