So sorry to hear of Leroy’s passing, he was a true friend.  Leroy was a big help to me and the many students he helped train at the PPA Training Center.  I enjoyed our numerous breakfast chats at Alice’s.  Will miss him and my deepest sympathy and condolences to Dale and the family. 
Unfortunately I cannot be in attendance on Wednesday.
