Sad news indeed. We chatted together for a while in Johns private chatroom a few years ago (I remember him telling me that he was born in Saarbruecken - just a few 100 kms away from me - and also some funny story about a swan). Caring for his mum will surely be rewarded (although I presume he didn`t see it as such a burden).

Rest in peace, Gary.

Condolences to his family and friends.
