Originally from Ed Grey on the FidoNet CPMTech echo... I am unhappy to relay the following message, which I download from the Drexel Hill RCP/M. Irv Hoff was one of a select circle of CP/M gurus. He authored much of the software that we CP/Mers use on a regular basis. Even though he has most recently been involved in IBM, he will be missed by the CP/M community. ********************* #: 8904 S9/ Potpourri 04-Apr-91 15:10:45 Sb: Irv Hoff has passed Fm: Sysop John Deakin 76702,310 To: All I'm sorry to report that Irv Hoff died peacefully at home yesterday, after a long and gallant battle with cancer. His wife, Arlene Hoff, called my wife in Seattle to give the news, but left no other information. I am attempting to call her, but I doubt seriously that I will be able to get through. I'm sure cards and/or flowers would be appreciated. Arlene Hoff 12130 Foothill Lane Los Altos Hills, CA 94022 I will advise if I hear anything further.
