Dear Netters,
According to what I read on the net, Ray passed away last week in the
hospital. As a neophyte SOLer, Ray was of great assistance to me with his
technical advice and encouragment. I will miss his posts and miss his
generosity with his knowledge. Although we never met he made a
positive impact on me as I am sure he did with many many others.
As we were both scientists, I thought that perhaps
some day we might turn up at the same meeting and be able to discuss our
hobby. Sadly that will not happen.
We will all miss Ray.
