From Michael Sanders

Hey Mark,

Jan sent out word through the O-List regarding your condition.  Hang in there!  The world's not done with you yet.

With only a handful of conventions that I've attended, one of the most enjoyable parts of renting space at the Gold Mine has been listening to your jokes and watching you entertain the kids and adults.  Your influence is larger than you might know.

Look at the reaction on this child's face:

Would not have happened without me sitting at a table with you at PCOC in Alburqurque and you generously sharing your knowledge with me.

Thank you so much for so many wonderful moments.  I'm sorry I've never attended one of your post-Convention gatherings.  My time at conventions have always ran short.  You and Arlene have always been two of those convention friends and fixtures that have always made me want to come back.

Please stay well!  Recover your health!
