| Mike:
Is it possible to include George and John on the "In Memorium" page?
There are many of our friends we have lost in the last several years and we should include as many as possible if we are going to have that page.
As an example Ron Barfield who was a loyal and dedicated JSSA member for many years. Skill should not be a requirement, only love and enjoyment of the game.
