Many of you know Heath and Josh Atkinson as members of this forum. I did not go to work today, but a staff member called me at home to tell me that Josh had called to tell me that Heath passed away this past weekend. I don't know any details, but will call Josh in the morning.

Heath was a young man, in his 40s, I believe, with a wife and daughter. He was a lawyer in South Carolina and also very well researched in various areas of American history.

Heath was scheduled to speak at the Surratt conference this April and had shared some of his findings with me. Very interesting details on the "trail" of Lincoln's body from Ford's Theatre until it began its journey back to Springfield. I hope that Josh continues the research or shares it with others.
