Remembering Leo Pedersen
One of our long time members Leo Pedersen has passed away, leaving a big hole in our group of intrepid TC enthusiasts. Leo along with his wife Martha was a regular at our northern events including annual Conclaves and was loved by all who were fortunate enough to know him. His humor and wit, not to mention willingness to share his vast knowledge and experience about MGs will be sorely missed.
Read more about Leo’s life and M.G. travels in the December 2021 newsletter.
