[libreplanet-discuss] A loss to the Free Software Community

[Arthur Torrey]

Passing the word - I just got the following sad news on one of the other 
mailing lists that I am on...

I know that Peabo was active in the Free Software world for many years, as that 
is how I first met him.  I believe (but am not sure) that he may even have 
worked at the FSF office for a while.

He was also one of the founding members of the Artisan's Asylum in Somerville, 
MA. where I am also a member and where I got this notice....

He will be missed.

Friends,

I'm sorry to share the news that Peter "Peabo" Olson, passed away on
April 28th.

Peabo has been a dedicated member of Artisan's Asylum since the
beginning and remained a fixture not just in Space 1, but at every
meeting and gathering I can recall.

I would like to have a memorial event at a time TBD. If you would be
interested in helping plan please let me know.

/Derek
