I met Jerry Ethington in the early 80's at a DEC computer convention in St.
Louis.  He was an engaging conversationalist, had a good sense of humor, and
was very generous with his knowledge.  I remember he was driving an unusual,
perhaps antique station wagon.

It was good to see him a few years ago after I bought my first Mac.  He
seemed to have become as much a guru on Mac's as on the old DEC's.  Really
sorry to hear of his death.  He was a great guy.
