Title: Condolence and Appreciation
Post by: Ric Gillespie on March 24, 2021, 07:50:17 AM: At his request, I regret to inform the Forum that long-time TIGHAR member and Forum researcher Friend Weller recently suffered the tragic loss of his 19 year-old son to epilepsy. TIGHAR, and especially the regular contributors to the Forum, are a family and I'm sure I speak for all of us when I say our hearts go out to Friend and his wife in this sad time.

His son enthusiastically followed TIGHAR and Friend has made a generous contribution in his honor. We are humbled and deeply appreciative.
