   Hello Marc.

   I'm really sorry to hear that.  My maternal grandmother passed away last   
   August (due to pneumonia complications) and she had dementia setting in.   
      
   I don't know if he wants to hear from us but if there's a way to contact him,   
   I'd like to be able to say hello.  He helped me a lot in the late 90s and   
   early 2000s with OS/2 and he was a real fountainhead of knowledge for me.  You   
   can contact me via netmail or email at sysop@outpostbbs.net.   
      
   Thanks,   
   Sean
