He really was one of the good guys.
Honest
Who cares about contracts - Stuart's word was his bond.
Intellectually adventurous
He dreamt up things that seemed to be beyond the limits of the state of
the art of fabrication technology - but they worked.
Meticulous
Behind his appearance and demeanour hid a thorough grasp of engineering
detail. What would the QL have been like if he had been in charge of the
design?
Carefree
The USA on a folding bike? My last memory of him (too long ago) was him
climbing up a rickety ancient cherry tree to get the cherries I could
not reach.
Generous
He shared the cherries!

I regret to have to report that I heard this morning of the death of Stuart
Honeyball of Miracle Systems.
He passed away peacefully last night (28th March) at 23:45 of cancer, according
to his wife, Karin.
I’m sure you’ll all want to join me in extending our condolence to his wife and
family and express our great admiration and gratitude for all the work he did
for the QL over the years.
