Hi,

I am surely going to miss Dean.

He has gone out of his way to monitor the Braillenote List, and has been a great help to all of us.

I had the pleasure of talking to Dean when I called Tech Support asking for help. He was very gracious, and helpful.

Sincerely,

Jay Dailey

I'm in shock. I pray God's blessings and comfort on those who
knew Dean
personally.  He will be sorely missed.

STATEMENT FROM RICHARD MANDER, HUMANWARE'S CHIEF EXECUTIVE
OFFICER
It is with profound regret that I have to advise Dean Jackson,
HumanWare's
BrailleNote Product Specialist, passed away suddenly yesterday at
his home.
For the past three years, Dean made his cheerful presence felt
around
HumanWare. He has been a popular and valued colleague to all of
us, and
became a
friend to many on the HumanWare team.
Dean was deeply committed to his work and to BrailleNote
customers, and it
wasn't uncommon for him to be sending e-mails in the middle of
the night, or

making calls to the other side of the world at 4 AM. His work
administering
our BrailleNote user list made him a popular figure among the
BrailleNote
user
community. His attention to detail and team spirit had a
measurable positive
impact on the success of the BrailleNote through his work in our
Research
and
Development team.
Dean was also a talented singer, enjoyed work with the Internet
and audio
production, and played a key role in his church activity. His
life was
tragically short,
but he lived every minute to the full, and the world is a better
place
because Dean Jackson lived in it.
All of the staff at HumanWare worldwide wishes to express its
condolences to
Dean's family at this sad time.
Dean's funeral will take place at the Lincoln Road Bible Chapel,
66 - 68
Lincoln Road Henderson Auckland on Saturday morning at 11:30.
Darryl
Sherwood and
Jonathan Mosen will be representing us at the service.
HumanWare will also be working with Dean's family and local
church to
organise a memorial service in Christchurch for Dean's friends
and work
colleagues.
We give thanks to Dean for enriching our lives.
Sincerely,
Dr Richard Mander
CEO, HumanWare
