Paul_Laughton Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Bill, you are one of the best damned software engineers that I have encountered in my 5 decade career. It was a pleasure working with you during those hectic and wonderful years at Shepardson and OSS. My wife, Kathleen O'Brien (author of the Atari Assembler/Editor cartridge), have many fond memories of those years. I imagine that you are tinkering with some sort of software right now. It is in your blood. We love you. We miss you. We wish you the best.Kathy and Paul 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckybuck Posted June 15, 2015 Author Share Posted June 15, 2015 Paul, so cool you are here. Of course, you and Kathleen are at the same place in our hearts as Bill is. We really hope, that a topic like this, will not be necessary for you and Kathleen, because you will stay healthy forever. The very best regards.
