Rummy;
Thanks for Alex's obit--sorry to hear about the loss.  You and Alex were
the first two contacts I made when I began considering getting an R22.  As
a matter of fact, Alex was the former owner of the boat I now have.  With
his passing, the Rhodes community has taken a significant loss.  Alex and
Pam, and their families are in our thoughts.
Claude
