Dear NVSL Friends,

 

Our venerable past NVSL president (1975-76), Frank ("Gail" to us old timers) Sedgwick, died at his home on December 21.

 

His obituary from Sat morning's Washington Post (Jan. 5) is posted at this link:

We will remember him for his enthusiasm for and support of the League for many years. As an ardent reformer of the seeding system, he conceived and introduced the "time-in-water" criterion around 1970.

 

Visitations will be on Thursday, January 10, from 2-4 pm and 6-8 pm, at Money and King Funeral Home in Vienna.

 

With sadness,

Dick Young

NVSL President (1979-80)
