Have seen the name many times, was it natural of accidental?
Give my sympathies to his family.

Hi Jerry,


Have seen the name many times, was it natural of accidental?


As far as we know, it was as a result a long illness. Bruce had been in 
hospital for some time but was back out and appeared to be on the mend. All 
news so far has come via Bruce's clients.

This is sad to hear.  When his obit appears in the paper, perhaps Ross
or one of our friends down under will send us the link?

peace on his family and friends,

RE: [U2] Passing of Bruce Nichol - Talon Computer Services

2007-03-26 Thread Stevenson, Charles
Being from the other side of the world, I didn't know him, except via
this newfangled cyber-community.  Whenever I saw that he posted, I knew
it'd be worth reading. I see from our archives that he posted here about
200 times in the past three years.  Google says another 130 to CDP.  A
contributor.

If the moderator will graciously allow just one Monty Python reference,
I always hoped there'd be a thread between him and one or more other
Bruces.  Even if they weren't all Aussies, Mr. Nichol would have given
the exchange authenticity.  I don't recall it ever happened.

Thank-you, Ross Ferris, for informing us.  Perhaps you could give this
list's rememberances and sympathies to his family.  If his family is
like most of ours, they proably have little appreciation of the
computer stuff he did or his significance here.
  
My sympathies to those of you who were his friends.

Chuck Stevenson

  Condolences to Bruce's friends and family. I've had quite a few
entertaining e-discussions with Bruce over the past years, but never got a
chance to met him in person. Every time I see a posting about someone in the
MV community passing away, it reminds me that I don't have an eternity to
get things straight in my own little sphere.

  Ross, if you get any additional information, feel free to post it on
PickSource. http://www.picksource.com  I'm also willing to work with you to
setup a community funds source if the family can use it. I can accept
payments via e-check, paypal, and credit card into my seller paypal account.
I'll start with a donation myself if that'll get things moving.

Regards,
