[TUHS] Fwd: [ih] Mike Karels has died

[Warner Losh]

He died of what appears to have been a heart attack while waiting for
the train to go to the airport after BSDcan in Ottawa. I believe those
details
can be shared, but an official obituary will be forthcoming with more
details.

He was in good spirits for the conference, and I'm in shock. I am glad that
I did get to chat with him about all things BSD during the closing social...
But I'm also very sad.
