RIP Alex

I have had a message from Sandy (Alex's Daughter) to advise that Alex passed away this morning, in his sleep, due to heart failure. The ongoing cancer battle, and the demands of Chemo, wore him down. Sandy wanted me to pass on how much Alex had learned from the IIS community, and he was always talking about the support and friendships that the community had given him, both in astronomy and in his health battle.

I will miss him terribly.

Glen
