I called alembic today and found out our good friend Valentino will be leaving permanently Friday.

I know i am speaking for many as i wish val our very best wishes as he pursues his next adventure.

In yiddish there is a word for Val. It's called mensch There is no literal translation but in essence it means a mans man

Val along with Mica helped me design Direwolf and he was there from the very beginning on Scooter.

Val
on behalf of all the people you have touched.......

Thank you for helping our dreams become reality

Godspeed, may the wind always be at your back and may the 4 winds blow you safely home.

I will look forward to seeing your posts as moderator and i will always think of you when i am playing

Warm wishes Val. Best of luck on the road ahead. I've enjoyed the few times we've spoken and I'm sorry I missed you when I visited the shop. Keep on truckin' ->

Peace

Val,

Like all here, I wish you the very best of luck in whatever you do and wherever you choose to do it. You have been an excellent addition to the Alembic crew, and I think many of us have come to feel like we know you through these pages, if not in person. Take care and keep in touch!

Valentino is going to work for his family's business and with his language and music skills, he will be a great asset to them.

While Valentino won't be at the office anymore, he'll still be a moderator on the Club and will certainly be visitng the shop regularly.
