_The Doctor__ Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 (edited) http://atari.sk/opustil-nas-velikan-slovenskej-atari-sceny/ The notice at atari.sk translated via deepl On Saturday 26.2.2022, at the age of 48, our friend, our older brother and especially our great role model - Lubo Roba known as -XI- / Satantronic - left us unexpectedly and forever. We are left with a lot of memories, a lot of beautiful work for our community. Lubo was an amazing person who passed away unexpectedly at a young age and from whose passing we and his family will long recover. He was a giant in the Atari community...
