Subject: Obit: Leo Pola
I know Leo has been gone for a while but none of the other topics fit. Wakana and I met Leo at a Mudgather during the only one of the FSGW fall gatherings we attended. He was... enthusiastic. We liked him immediately. I bought his Christmas CD and he knitted a lovely shawl for Wakana.

Today I dug out my various Christmas CDs intending to rip them for use on my phone. When I got to his it was blank. This was a heartbreaking moment for me. Admittedly Leo was more enthusiasm than talent. The title of his album makes that clear (Carols Loudly Bellowed). But I don't just admire talent and professionalism. I like any person's zeal when it comes to the music they love.

I have no idea why my CD is blank. I know I've listened to it many, many years ago. If anyone else bought his CD could you check to see if yours still has the music? Thanks.
