Roby Reed passing.
My heartfelt condolences to you Jeff. Please forward mine to Mrs. Reed. I know how close you were to Robey. I did not have the privilege of knowing or meeting him.
I have not been much of a member of E-Budo. When we lost Mark Feigenbaum, it pretty much let the air out of the balloon for me. I didn't know Mark personally either, but felt a closeness. I remember mentioning my beginnings in judo and a young fella said it was impossible for me to become a Shodan as fast as I did; plus, I mentioned some of my tricks prior to shai. All BS of course, but the fellow reacted just as I figured he would and Mark saw my BS just as BS and attempted to straighten the kid out. It is fun to be a trouble maker.
