Hello EASI friends and colleagues:
Please forgive the duplicate postings, but I know you all will want to know
that Dick died yesterday. This leaves a giant hole in the life of EASI and
in my life as well. Dick is my best friend.
Dick was diagnosed with cancer in early April, if I recall. Even since
then he had many good days when he was back on the Internet. These were
among his happiest days the last 3 months as working and helping others
were the things that filled his life with joy.
Dick could learn new software like no one I know. He loved to take its
technical confusions and often opaque manuals and make those technology
items easy for people to understand. He also had a contagious optimism and
sense of humor. He was a man of integrity and never was satisfied to do a
mediocre job.
God has blessed me to have Dick as a best friend and working buddy.
I ask you all to remember his family at this time.
