			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.
