Anatole Lubovich

I just received an email from Pearl Stein Selinksy reporting that Anatole Lubovich died during his heart surgery. There were no further details. It's 9pm on Thursday, I'm at home, without access to my email list to send this out to a larger community of folks. Not to mention that this is a lousy way to hear such terrible news, via blog, via website, via email. But I have this need to tell people, between sips of red wine, from within this feeling of sunkenness.
