[Leica] Herb Kanner

[Jim Nichols]

Thanks a lot, Sonny.  As I recall, Ming ran away, after a while Herb got 
a replacement, then he found Ming, brought him home, and the two cats 
got along well.  Remarkable story.

That selfie reminds me of myself, except Herb had more hair and a better 
beard. :-)

Still miss his comments.
