I received the sad news this evening from Glenn that Anna died of cancer this past August. annap and Glenn hosted one of the first Mudcat gatherings at their former home near the Jersey Shore. They held a second one a few months later. It was at one of the gatherings that I first met the late Bill Sables. It was due to annap's gathering that the seeds were planted for what some labeled, Bill and Allan's Excellent Adventure-Y2k . In fact, one of the final stops on that grand tour of ten thousand miles, was at Anna and Glenn's house where Bill and I were treated like royalty! I will always be grateful to Anna and Glenn for their generous hospitality.
