In Memoriam: Jack Elliott

I would like to say a few words about Jack Elliott. I lobbied Cathy
Craig and other members of the Board of the IBS to bring Jack over for
one of our Annual Board of Directors meetings a few years a back in
Lake Charles, LA. I thought back then that he was a special fellow and
thought that he would be an asset to our meeting and to the organization.

One evening we went out for Cajun food and Jack ordered a local beer and
I ordered a Guinness, it was one of the those crowded places with loud
music and spicy food. He enjoyed the local color and atmosphere and I
was glad that Jack had the opportunity to see a slice of America and I
was able to share it with him.
