Dear Jonathan and Humanware Colleagues:
Words seem inadequte to express my shock and sadness on learning
of Dean Jackson's passing!
Like many on the BN List, I'd come to rely on Dean's enlightening
messages. Few of us on the Braillenote List will forget the
bedlam that reigned during the upgrading of KS 7.0! In spite of
the long hours and constant postings, Dean remained patient,
supportive and kept his sense of humor.
As a List member who is deaf as well as blind, Dean will hold a
special place in my heart and memory, because, by his example, he
encouraged others to share their knowledge, no matter how
different the need from the norm.
In his message, Dr. Mander stated that Dean will be greatly
missed by all who knew him. My thoughts and prayers are with his
family. I hope they will find comfort in the high level of
respect and affection their son achieved during a life that was
short, but distinguished by a measure of fulfillment that few of
us, twice his age, can match.
Warmest regards,
Kathleen Spear
