Nathaniel and Meredith--
I am one of many who knew your father only through his writing, and that mostly from Macworld magazine. Yet, recalling that he had passed away while in the prime of his career brought tears to my eyes again this morning.
There was something so human in his writing that we who work with computers everyday need.
And children, of course, need a father. Since yours was taken before your maturity, I pray that you will find much support in the community of those who care.
