Hugh was an incredibly kind and generous person. Thanks to him my
micromount minerals have a home: he gave me the map cases with their flat
drawers (they held the paper copies of the 7 1/2” quads for Colorado) for
me to use to house my small mineral clusters! I made a donation to DFO,
but I’m sure it wasn’t nearly as much as the map cases were worth.
