[Leica] Post Your Memories of Sal DiMarco

[jls at runbox.com (Jeffery Smith)]

We are in an age where "random acts of kindness" are increasingly rare. It 
was very gratifying to be able to ask an open question to the LUG and get a 
personal, detailed response from a complete stranger. It meant even more to 
me coming from a seasoned pro when I am a seasoned amateur. Often the pros 
won't take the time to respond to a novice, particularly if the question was 
naive. He would have made a great teacher.

Fellow LUGgers,

It's very gratifying to see so many wonderful comments about Sal and his
considerable impact on our lives.

In the past, I've often found that grieving families have no idea how much
their departed relative meant to others.  It's often a revelation that the
deceased had had a significant effect on others.

To that end, I plan to bring printouts of all the posted LUG messages of
remembrance and condolence when I attend the funeral this week.  I think
that Sal's family would be pleased to see how much he meant to people around
the world.

If anyone wants to make additional comments, please post them to the LUG and
I'll include them in the folder for Sal's family.

Best regards,
