Broken Wand - Larry White. (1935-2008)

It is with deep sorrow that I report the passing this morning of Larry White. Although he fought his cancer for a long time, his fight ended at 4:00AM this morning.

Larry was the former editor of MUM, a mentor to many as well as a friend to all. His legacy will live on as I understand he has a column coming up thi year in MUM. His magic books for children are still in every library in the world.

Rest in peace my friend.
