Hi, Mark,
Sorry, I had to ignore email for awhile in order to get the campaign 
newsletter written, layed out and mailed out.... done now, so I'm 
catching up with a couple of weeks of email messages.
I brought this up with the Episcopal priest who took one of my 
favorite photos of Mordechai, in the garden of St. George's Cathedral 
2 days after his release from prison.  He said he authorizes free use 
of the photo; credit should be given to Ronald H. Miller.
Here's the original, and the cropped version we used in our summer 
campaign newsletter.
Peace,
Felice
