R.I.P Leroy Grannis

Leroy Grannis was a true gentleman and a real talent. He passed away at the age of 93. LA Times obit.
My favorite Grannis photo.

    Before surfing’s mass-appeal, Leroy KNEW there was something special about the “Sport of Kings”. Always easy to look back and think how easy it is. However: Friedman(sp?), Stezcyk (sp again, sorry) and LOOoong before that, Leroy wanted to STOP time and convey what we all eventually tapped into? or he was just a good guy sharing the stoke w/friends?
