For Immediate Release
Veteran UFO researcher Stanton Friedman suffered a mild heart attack on Friday, June 27.
Friedman’s fellow researcher, co-author, and friend, Kathleen Marden issued the following statement on his behalf:
“Stanton Friedman suffered a mild heart attack on Friday night. I spoke with him this morning and am very pleased to report that he is feeling strong and chipper. His heart enzymes have declined, so he has turned the corner. He is awaiting a dye test and an echo cardiogram. This will probably occur today or Wednesday, as July 1 is a national holiday in Canada.
He does not presently have access to a public phone or computer, but will reply to email messages when he returns home in a few days. Please do not call his home. Well wishers can send cards to Stan at P.O. Box 958, Houlton, ME 04730. He appreciates everyone’s thoughts and prayers.”
For 45 years, Mr. Stanton Friedman has traveled the world with a simple message: Stanton states “UFOs are real!”
DATES on Friedman’s Upcoming Speaking Engagements and Lectures
Open Minds reported today that Friedman had to cancel some future speaking engagements such as the upcoming Roswell UFO Festival and at the MUFON Symposium, but will be unable to attend either event. However, Marden will be present at the events to sell his books in his absence.
Stanton Friedman is credited as one of the first researchers to introduce the general public to the now-well-known 1947 Roswell UFO incident. His research contributed to the first book addressing the Roswell incident, appropriately titled The Roswell Incident, published in 1980.
Friedman was awarded with the Open Minds Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2013 International UFO Congress.
