Re: [ARSCLIST] Peter Copeland

["Marie Azile O'Connell" <marie.oconnell@xxxxxxx>]

I am very saddened to hear of the passing of Peter.  He was the first person I
ever sent pictures of my intravenous drip system and the story.  He was a great
supporter and mentor.  

Thank you Nigel for the information.  May he rest in peace and may his family be
proud of his wonderful legacy.

Sincerely

Marie O'Connell
