*sigh* I remember meeting him at Bama Con IV back in 1990 or so when I entered the writing contest. He seemed like a nice man. *raises appropriate glass*
He was. Damn it, he was. A gentle, wonderfully kind man. I met him the first time, lord, maybe 1978? 79? Long time ago. Didn't get a chance until many years alter to tell him tha it was his writing that brought me back to SFdom.

Very glad I had that chance.
