Regards Peter ----- Original Message ----- From: Edi Birsan To: [email protected] ; Douglas Kent Sent: Wednesday, February 27, 2013 3:23 PM Subject: Fwd: Allan B. Calhamer Folks, I am sending this to the main stream zines above and a BCC to a host of others. Please spread the news through your own networks. Begin forwarded message: From: Selenne Calhamer <[email protected]> Date: February 27, 2013 6:45:52 AM PST To: Edi Birsan <[email protected]> Subject: Allan B. Calhamer Good Morning, Edi: I'm writing to let you know that Dad passed away Monday morning. He was 81 years old and had been slowing down quite a bit recently, but luckily he didn't suffer any long illness and was able to enjoy his art and his books (and his Diplomacy zines) until the last few days. I'm so glad he had an opportunity to see you last year; he always spoke very highly of you and your skill in Diplomacy! Mom has insisted on a private ceremony with no flowers. At the age of 86 she is deeply practical and has little patience for rituals of any kind, I'm afraid. The truth is she would probably be overwhelmed and exhausted by it all, so my sister, Tish, and I are going to let her win this one! However, I know she would welcome any memories/stories about Allan or thoughts on what Diplomacy has meant to you. If you would like to drop her a note you may do so at: Hilda Calhamer 501 N. Stone LaGrange Park, IL 60526 If you prefer to email, you are welcome to use my address ([email protected]); I will print out your message and deliver it to her. You're the first person I've reached out to in the "Diplomacy Community," so please feel free to forward this notice to others that love the game and the man as much as we do.
