I have been advised that Nat de Leon, one of the early board members in the IPS has died. He was a member of the IPS board in 1958, before I was even born.

I never met him, but will provide further information as it becomes available. Those who knew him are invited to share their memories.

Here is a picture of Mr. de Leon, on the right.

Anyone local. There will be a gathering at Pinecrest Gardens tonight (Tuesday Feb. 3) from 6:00pm to 8:00pm. He was a plant pioneer.

Any pictures from the gathering?
