It is with great sadness that I have to report that long time member Edward Jaffe passed at 12:30am on December 1st after a very long illness.
He was also a great friend and confidant.
A lot of the things we do as an organization were things I learned from him throughout his life.
He was a person who fought for what he believed and he fought against this terrible cancer for a long time.
He died a Vermont freeman.
You will not be forgotten my friend and we will meet again in a better place.
