A friend just told me that Allan and 9 others at WDEL were laid off by Forever Media (the new owner of WDEL) on March 26th--one month after the SWLfest. Talk about kicking a guy when he's down.

Extremely sad to hear of Allan's passing. We spent many hours looking and talking QSLs. His mother was from Dauphin Manitoba, a couple of hours north of my hometown of Brandon,Manitoba.

RIP my friend.
