Laurel Leathers sends the following update on our friend and Founding President Emeritus, Dr. Chester Leathers:

Rose Mary Leathers asked if I would drop you a quick line to let you know why she and Chet have not been participating in the mushroom activities. You may have heard already, but Chet suffered a mild heart attack in May which led to by-pass surgery. He is on the road to recovery but not yet up to long outings. 

As for me, I have knee replacement surgeries planned for this year. That is what has kept me out of the hunts. Hopefully next year I can get my new bionic knees out in the woods again.  

I miss all of my friends in the club and wish everyone a great season.

Sincerely,

Laurel Leathers 

We assuredly wish both of them a speedy recovery, and look forward to the pleasure of their presence at our future functions.
