Oh, please disregard my previous post. I began reading emails from the most
recent.
I too am deeply saddened by this news. Christian's contributions to the List
were always appreciated.

Subject: [meteorite-list] Christian Anger + Gero Kurat (1938-2009)
I am deeply saddened to learn about the death of Christian, a fellow
collector and friend for so many many years.
Sadly, this is not the only terrible news from Austria, recently:
Prof. Gero Kurat, the former curator of the meteorite collection at the
Natural History Museum in Vienna, Austria, and past president of the
Meteoritical Society died on November 27, 2009, at the age of only 71.

Both great individuals will truly be missed! My sincere condolences to his
families and friends.

Betreff: [meteorite-list] Christian Anger
Hello everybody,
I just received this email (below) from Hanno, with very sad news.
For all of you who did not know Christian Anger, he was an
expert meteorite
collector and a very friendly guy. In his real life he was an
Engineer, and
lived near Vienna, Austria. He leaves behind an (ex)wife and
two little
girls.
And I still remember when we were waltzing together in
Ensisheim, in much
happier times.

Hello Anne,
today I received an email from Harald Stehlik, that our good friend
Christian Anger had on 14.dec 2009 a very heavy car accident
and he died.
I am very shocked and sad, because Christian was not only a
collector but a
friend.
Everybody know how much fun we had when we were togheter.
We had also other private contact and were real friends.
At first he told me that he cannot come to the Munich show,
because he had
so many private problems in his mind.
Then he called me thursday evening when I was in Munich that
he decided to
come. So he was with us friday evening at the Fliegerbräu and
stayed in
Munich till sunday afternoon. He helped me to bring some of
my material back
into the car sunday afternoon.
This was the last time I saw him.
True friendship never ends..
Hanno Strufe
