Deceased Minnesota Birders
For several years I have been reporting on deceased birders at the
annual Paper Session. Originally the list was then printed in Minnesota
Birding but that has been discontinued. This year a list of deceased
birders was distributed. I have been compiling the list since we started
doing it. I have had the help of many folks across the state who have
sent me names and information. I am now relinquishing this and Bob
Janssen will be the new compiler. My thanks to all who have assisted me.
I could not have done it without your help. Please send names to

MOU Paper SessionDecember 1, 2012
Each year at the MOU Annual Meeting and Paper Session we pause to
recognize those Minnesota birders who have died since our last meeting,
or in a few cases, were not reported to me until after the meeting. It
includes some who were well known in the MOU including two former
presidents, Forest Strnad and Jack Hofslund. Jack was also a T.S.
Roberts award recipient and a former editor of The Flicker, predecessor
of The Loon. It also includes many who were less well known and may not
even have been aware of the MOU. But their interest in birds was such
that it was noted in their obituary or someone sent their name to me.
