evaluation of Mike's medical condition to travel

[John S. White]

I have just heard that Michael Leybov has suffered a heart attack, but that he is now out of intensive care and is recovering. Of course this means that he will not be attending the Tucson Show this year. Those of us who know him will miss him very much.

[Pete Modreski]

So sorry to hear this! I hope we'll hear soon that his recovery is going very well.
