I had a couple of communications with him and I found him a valuable
resource and a wonderful person.

He will be missed greatly, not only by MOPO, but by the collecting
community.

Subject: Re: [MOPO] Long Time Collector - Louis Leithold

MOPOers know me as a seldom poster...usually with WTB posts.  I rarely
comment on people in this hobby, but I have to comment about the passing of
Louis.

This saddens me deeply.  In a way, I don't fully understand why.  We only
corresponded or spoke a dozen or so times during my 12-15 years of
collecting.  We weren't particularly close, but I think that may be why I
feel such a loss.  Louis seemed to make every conversation about posters
feel like an important one.  He seemed to really care about the posters we
discussed...and that they were posters I cared about.  In my dealings with
him, he was simply a very nice man and true gentleman in the hobby.  (And we
all know there are some in this hobby who may not be classified as a
"gentleman" after their passing.)

I will miss Louis and, more importantly, I think our hobby will miss Louis.

RIP

DBT
