OT: Sad news


Jim Loveland, iris-lover and dear friend to many of us, passed away 
early this morning from the effects of aplastic anemia, a bone-marrow 
disorder.  

Jim was a tireless worker for many iris organizations,  the Missouri 
Botanical Garden and the best in a friend who was willing to pitch in 
and do anything needed-personal or gardening.  His endless optimism 
and sense of humor added fun to every situation.  He really never met 
a stranger and shared his garden with anyone who had an interest.  He 
shared his knowledge and enthusiam with everyone he met and spread 
the iris-bug to everyone.

We will truly miss him forever and are glad he was in our lives.
