We greatly regret to announce, as reported by Harlan Ellison,
that Robert Sheckley passed away this morning in a New York hospital.
Robert was a wonderful guest for a Worldcon even though he could not
attend
the event himself. We can all take great comfort in the fact that
firstly,
we had the chance to honour him before it was too late, and secondly,
that
we know he has received and enjoyed our publications and the other items
we sent him from the convention, which he followed with great interest
through his family as they attended.
We will be passing the condolences of all our staff and members along
to Robert's family and posting appropriate announcements to our website
etc as the news becomes public and obituaries are released.
