[obol] FWD: Patrick Sullivan

[Wilson Cady]

        Patrick Sullivan was a fine young man with a gentle soul and the
sharpest eyes and ears of any birder I have ever met, this is truly a
loss for all who knew him or read his e-mails. God bless him and Ruth.
Below is Ruth's address.

Ruth Sullivan
513 Ramsdell St.
Tacoma,  98466

 Wilson Cady
Washougal, WA
