Re: Richard Wolfson

2007-12-22 by Tyler Boley

I posted this to the Mac list before seeing it here, and this is the
more apropriate forum.
I had no idea Richard was ill. I remember Richard as far back as the
Leben list, someone with whom I exchanged email and phone
conversations, and a true talented black and white enthusiast and
craftsperson who cared about maintaining the high bar and making a
contribution.
I'm sorry to hear of this.
