Michael Monroe, former curator-in-chief for the Renwick Gallery and a great friend of the JRA, had a minor stroke on May 22nd, for which he stayed in the hospital overnight. He returned home on Friday May 23rd with minor sensory deprivation to his entire left hand side with no other signs of permanent impairment. He continues to be closely monitored by neurosurgeon and internist, but he is in good spirits with his sense of humor and all other capacities intact.  However, he has been cautioned to rest and will be taking at least the 10 days off from the Museum. Michael currently serves as the director of the Bellevue Arts Museum.

Michael is recovering beautifully and asks that people do not send get well flowers but get well cards can be sent to Margaret Carter, Bellevue Arts Museum, 510 Bellevue Way NE, Bellevue, WA 98004.
