A week ago, Bruce Lowder lost his battle with brain cancer. For those who don't know, Bruce puts on the largest and best reptile expos here in the northeast - in White Plains, Long Island and New Hampshire. Even though I've know him and his wife for almost 25 years, I can't say we were close or even friends but he's always been kind and professional to me; and always helpful in getting me a table to each of his sold out expos. Bruce will be missed.
