Sad New from the Rio Dulce

 I have cut and pasted this from Gerry's Blog.  I feel it says all that needs to be said.

Leonidas was a fine man and friend.  He will be missed.

Well liked Mario's employee murdered.

Leonidas was one of the Guardian's here at Mario's. His reassuring presence could be found patrolling the grounds and docks from sunset to sunrise most evenings. Last night he was shot dead at around 6pm on his way to work here.

He was not on marina property and he was not carrying the weapon that is issued to whoever is on duty at night time.

The marina staff are deeply shocked. Most of them live in the same village and he was a popular man. The cruisers gathered at coffee time to digest the news given by Jim, the marina owner.

We await further information but for now our thoughts are with his widow and two children.
