********************************************************************** Ken Reed 11 February 2014 ********************************************************************** Kannan, Just to let you know, my father-in-law, Ken Reed passed away lastTuesday. Ken had been battling multiple health issues and had been in and out of hospital for the last two years. He recently started having dialysis every two days.. But he really was not strong enough to handle it and was in considerable pain at times. He passed in our local hospital in his sleep. Please pass this on to any of the old GSI people that you and he may know. He still used to talk aboutthe good old days of GSI in Sydney.. Chris is taking it well as Ken has been high maintenance for her for some time, it was a release for both of them. Best regards, Martin Bayly ********************************************************************** Martin, very sorry to hear this sad news and equally sorry to hear about his poor health these last few years. In one sense, I can well see how it’s a relief for you and Chris. But, no matter how you look at it, it is sad and I hope and pray you all get the courage and strength to bear this loss. I’ll convey the news here but maybe you could put together a short paragraph on his life and his days in GSI/TI and send it to Bill Boettcher. He is the keeper of the web-site and will be able to post it on-line. Again, with heartfelt sympathies .. Kannan
