Hello all,
I hadn't seen anyone post anything about his passing on Monday.

Loved my first Leblanc (30 years ago), my younger sister swore by her Vito sax in the 80s.
Hopefully he be kindly remembered.

Yeah- I saw that on the Leblanc site yesterday. It's kind of the end of an era for Leblanc I think, and hopefully that start of a better one.

TKS for the info, out of town at strange comp. Sorry to hear, he did much for building LeBlanc in the US, and his patents [and Leon's also] are a part of his "legacy". Am proud to own a number of his cl's and saxes. Don
Thanx, Mark, Don

This is truly sad. I'll be purchasing new LeBlancs within the week, and it's sad that now I won't have the opportunity to send thanks - whether it would have reached him personally or not.
But, thank you very much, Vito Pascucci.
