He was only 48 years old and started RTi when he was just 24!!

Very sad. Best wishes and condolences to all that knew him.

I just meant cuz "unexpectedly" was used in the PR. Didn't mean to suggest anything by it.

The fact that he had done so much by the time he was only 48 kinda puts my life into a somewhat sad perspective.......

I started using his Lexicon 500 when it first shipped and it was a revelation to me when it came to control and ease of setup, that level of insight and drive will be missed.

When someone so young dies it is always very sad. Even though I'm sure they don't visit here, my condolences to his family and friends.
