Get Well, David!

When you think of dedicated amateur astronomers, David Levy is one of the most avid and encouraging observers out there. He embodies the true amateur, as in “one who loves” what he does and loves the stars and planets and comets (can’t forget the comets!). I’ve been a friend and fan of David’s for longer than I can remember; he’s done me several kind favors over the years, and in return, I’ve always supported his work and recommended his books to people.

Thus, it was with some trepidation that I opened an email today telling me that David had a stroke recently. He’s on the mend, and apparently he didn’t suffer serious damage, but will need some time to recover. David’s married to the wonderful and wise Wendee, who is busy caring for him as he gets better. Take a hop over to David’s site and read more about these two wonderful people, and David’s many contributions to astronomy.
