I am very sad to hear this. My condolences to the family, his friends, especially you Sumas, who introduced me to him. I got a nice e-mail from him 3 weeks ago after thanking him for receiving a copy of his book. He had a rough life but was a gentle soul with a big frame to handle it. This gentle misfit will find a place in our DYes heaven, this coming from someone not the least bit religious, but... Rest in Peace my friend! JFK
