Sad News

RSWORD · 18th March 2013, 02:43 AM

This is indeed very sad news. Our forum here has done a great job of bringing together a family of collectors to share their enthusiasm, knowledge and interest in our favorite subjects. Thanks to Lee, Artzi and Avner for having the great idea to begin a forum gathering which I believe started near a dozen years ago in conjuction with the Baltimore show. We missed last year but got back together this year. We had a great turn out. It was through this venue that I had the opportunity to meet Lew. If it hadn't been for that, I might have only known him online. But to meet someone, shake their hand, put a face with the name, added so much to all of his future posts for me. While I am saddened by the announcement of his passing I'm very thankful that I had the opportunity to meet him in person and understand that passion first hand.
