Some two-liner comments do not qualify as obituaries.
In Fidonet, we have a long tradition of respecting our fallen
heroes. They are not "losers and suckers" here. From the top of my head,
I remember:
Roy Witt (FNEWSW12)
Joe Delahay (FNEWSY40)
Bob Seaborn (FNEWSZ03)
Robert Bashe (FNEWSZ50)
Robert Nelson ((FNEWTA37)
And finally, two and a half years ago:
Holger Granholm
http://eljaco.se/files/fnews/FNEWTD07.ZIP
... where we contacted the family and even got a great article
from his son. The ZC, the RC, the NC, and other sysops that had
contacts with him contributed.
His family asked for a copy of the Fidonews issue.
This deteriorating respect is what saddens me. YMMV
