Friends
I've just learned that our great friend and long-time IAP member Landon Smith ([profile]hunter-27[/profile]) died on August 14th. Landon had been recovering from a stroke he suffered in March, and multiple subsequent surgeries. I don't have any further information.
Landon's wife Lisa had previously been in touch with Mike Broberg, and Mark Gum had visited Landon a couple times and given us an update. Perhaps Mike or Mark have additional information.
Landon was a member of IAP since 2007, and had been extremely giving of his time and effort to run contests at Bash time, and swaps during the year. I was always impressed with his logical thinking and calm demeanor, and I enjoyed speaking with him on the phone several times. I will miss his contributions and his presence here, and the IAP has lost a great friend.
Today is his birthday; he would have been 42 years old.
