MOTM

Jurgen was very kind to us.  He was generous and patient.  He answered
my stupid and Will's not so stupid stupid questions with gentlemanly
tolerance from the first time we corresponded regarding panels for his
Tau Pipe module in June of 2007.  Will and he corresponded - Will urging
him to design a Vocoder.  He touched our lives and we are better for it.
We have shed tears today, but this salty currency can't reflect the
value of Jurgen's friendship or the light of his spirit and truth.

Out of the night time
Into the misty blue
Across the skyline
I'll always see you
I will see you
I'll see you
Sailing this river deep and true
I will remember
I'll always see you

We wish you fair winds and following seas, Jurgen Haible.

Bill and Will

excellent electronic music. Me being "all thumbs" in electronics, I
always admired how he combined his technical and musical skills with his
desire to let everybody participate in his progresses. But more, I lose
a friend who had been - together with his wife Birgit - in our church in
Erlangen/Tennenlohe for a long time and with whom we shared many good
hours. We had gotten out of sight for a couple of years, but "met" again
only some weeks ago on Facebook.
