Hi LABIRDers!
Some of you may already be aware but I was not, so I thought I'd pass along that Mr. Tom Sylvest of Gramercy passed away a month ago today. He was 100 years old and sharp to the end. Mr. Tom was quite a character and I know many birders that came in contact with him over the years, particularly if you were in to winter hummingbirds.
Josh, I imagine you're probably in this email group, so let me say that my heart goes out to you and your family and know that your grand-dad will be thought of kindly always. May he rest in peace.
