Dear Frank,
I am SO GRATEFUL for this precious information. Thank you VERY much
indeed.
I would very much like to be in touch with him, but doubt that he is
on-line?
Now I know his name for certain, I can finish my piece. I'd like to
write one on
him too. I so admire this determination to achieve such a difficult
task and his
talent in being able to do so.
If ever you can think of a way of my reaching him, I'd be thrilled.
Thank you again,
Jennifer
