Would anyone know of Mr. K. Merrington is still active or has retired?

Thanks

Lots of health problems. I won’t go into detail. He recently got out of the hospital after life changing surgery and is back home recovering. He’s not in great physical condition. Doubtful he’ll be back at the bench. There’s a rumor that he has a “helper” finishing up the last of the jobs that are in the shop and then it’s pretty much over.

Spoke to him last week. He is working a little bit. Going to be a slow process. Seemed to be in pretty good spirits.

I am saddened to hear.

I cannot say enough good things about Kirk. The work he did for me was absolutely outstanding.
