Dave Bergmann passed away on April 7, 2020. Dave and his wife, Sheila, have been very active in ESCONI for more than 30 years. They have participated in the ESCONI shows demonstrating their collection of artifacts including fossils and microcrystals (in particular Dave had a powerful large crystal microscope with TV display monitor). Activities extended to chairing the Lapidary Study Group and presenting a program for the DuPage Girl Scouts. Dave and Sheila had visited many fossil sites in the US and they have often discussed their finds. Our condolences are extended to Sheila and the family; Dave will be missed!
