[GREN-Exec] Emil Frind

[Kevin Thomason]

Hi Susan and John,

I have been in touch with Michael Frind a couple of times over the holidays.  He is doing okay.  He said that the family is missing Emil and it is a big adjustment but that he was 90 years old and pretty sick in the end.

Michael figures he will head back out West to continue his consulting work but he has been pretty good at joining the Friday at 5:30pm Bill 23 meetings and says that he will continue to do what he can even from a distance.

Kevin.
