How this for weird... I opened a post office box in Huntington Beach, CA and of course, kept getting mail for the past holder of the box in my new box (mainly numismatic stuff, pretty cool, considering I am a novice collector). Just for the helluva it, I looked up the name on the net to see why a person so into coins (I get tons of coin related junk mail) gave up their box and who they are:
"PAST ANA V.P. HELEN CARMODY-LEBO DIES
Helen Carmody-Lebo, immediate past vice president of the American Numismatic Association (ANA), died in an apartment fire today in Huntington Beach, California. Her husband, Jerry Lebo, was at their other home in Indiana at the time of the fire. Arrangements for a memorial service are pending.
"The numismatic hobby and the ANA lost a great friend today," says ANA President H. Robert Campbell. "To know anything about this hobby and its spirit is to know Helen and what she did for us all. On behalf of the 30,000 members of the ANA, I express our deepest condolences to Jerry, Helen's mother and her brother. She was a loyal friend to everyone and will be remembered always."
Carmody-Lebo, 62, was first elected to the ANA Board of Governors in 1993 and served three terms before being elected vice president in 1999. Last August, Carmody-Lebo stepped down from the Board, citing health reasons. According to friends, her health was improving and she was beginning to resume some of her activities."
What are the odds?
