The deadline for submitting pictures to this year's yearbook was 11 
February.

On 15 February I tested positive for Covid-19. You can imagine that the 
reason I went and got tested was that I was feeling worse than awful. So 
on February 12, when I should have started assembling the yearbook, I 
just sat there and stared into space.

I seem to have recovered. I lost a month to Covid, but today I found 
myself feeling good enough to get started on assembling the yearbook. It 
went well, and I think I can finish it up in a week or so.

I want to dedicate this year's book to Ted Grant, who as you surely know 
passed away in 2020. I figured that the name he was born with was not 
"Ted", probably "Theodore" or "Edward", and spent more time than I care 
to admit trying to find official documents, but can't find anything 
authoritative. Does anybody know?


Brian,
So glad to read that you are recovering from Covid-19. It is a nasty virus.
My wife is over six months since testing positive and has several lingering 
?long hauler? symptoms.
Very lucky that I was very close to her before she tested positive and 
during ace afterwards but always tested negative.

Hope you continue to recover and don?t worry too much about the yearbook. 

Stay healthy,
Don
