Remembering Erwin

It would've been his 40th birthday today.

You are sorely missed, Erwin.

Saw the fitting tribute in the latest S&S yesterday.

I hope you are getting clear skies, wherever you are.

Too Erwin

Any chance on beaming some of that Astrophotography skill down on me.

You have been missed.

Happy Birthday.

Some of you might be interested to know that Westsky and myself were out at our society's observing site near Leyburn over the weekend where a shrub was planted next to Erwin's memorial and remains.

Thanks Andrew - your reminder and photo brought a tear to my eye as images of Erwin and his incredible astro-feats and endeavors flashed through my mind.

Cheers
