Dear Helen,I was so sorry to hear about Merrill though we have had little recent contact. He was one of the first MLSC members I got to know when he still lived at Arbordeau and introduced me to my first main line girlfriend. We enjoyed many fine doubles tennis matches over our younger years as well as meetings and other sporting events and discussions at MLUC. He will always be in my memory for his uniquely cheerful, positive, intelligent manner that so many of us always looked forward to. I will make sure that people at MLUC know. You have my deepest sympathy. Paul Liebman
