Dear David Lister. I never met him in person, but I’ve read many of his
fascinating “white papers” on the BOS site, I communicated with him via email.
He helped me assemble my short history of origami for my exhibit in Tehachapi
CA last spring. He collaborated on some designs that friends of mine worked on.
He contributed those wonderfully illuminating posts to the O-List ever since I
first joined in 2001. For the first few years, David Lister *was* the O-List,
for me. He was erudite, generous, kind, yes. I frequently day-dreamed about
collaborating with him to write a definitive, all-encompassing history of
paper-folding. I hope someone can use his archives to do that someday. I will
miss him, mucho! :-(
RIP David Lister. May your memory and contributions be with us, always.
