Hi, as you know, we lost our beloved Ed recently this month. I'm in touch with Sophia, Ed's wife, who says they would like to include something in the eulogy about Ed's contribution/work with Pure Data and his involvement with the community. I said I would help and prepare it, but I'd like your help as well. The funeral is not till the Friday April 5. The pastor/celebrant may touch on this in the service but at the wake a longer version can be shared.

She says it'd be good to explain what he did so people who aren't familiar with Pd can understand what he did. The pastor needs more of an overview, how he contributed to the community. Conventions he attended. At the wake we can also have messages from us.

So I said I'd get in touch with you people, to gather messages and ask if someone would like to help me prepare this.

cheers
