This is a great suggestion.  I support the idea that we use one of our
newsletters as a tribute to Dr. Barrow. It will only work, however, if
you help James by sending him your tribute.  
James,
I know you had a recent request for newsletter contributions.  What's
your deadline for Barrow tributes?

Hello all,
I thought of something we could do regarding Lee.
I propose that MAC and CSM devote their next newsletters to Lionel
Barrow Jr., and that this special edition be linked to the first page of
the AEJMC website for all to access. CSM and MAC newsletter editors can
work together to put this issue together.
The special edition should be about Lee, but also be an occasion to
reflect on our issues over the years. We should solicit articles,
interviews, old pieces, etc. to make this special issue a fitting
statement.
