scottgull Posted June 24, 2010 Posted June 24, 2010 Just thought that the community should know that Bobby passed away last week. I dont know all of the details. Several people are using some of the contributions that were developed by Chemo (Bobby Easland). I have used Chemo to do several upgrades and he has written several custom scripts for me. He will be missed. Scott
Guest Posted June 24, 2010 Posted June 24, 2010 That is very sad news for the community. His contributions to osC helped me tremendously along with his valuable and precious time that he so generously gave. My thoughts are with him today . Tammy, I am very sorry for your loss.
Guest Posted June 24, 2010 Posted June 24, 2010 Although I have never had the opportunity to correspond with Chemo, I have seen and worked with some of his contributions. My deepest sympathy to his family. Chris
TheJackal Posted June 24, 2010 Posted June 24, 2010 My deepest condolences to Bobby's family and friends. Thank you for all your contributions. - The Jackal
burt Posted June 25, 2010 Posted June 25, 2010 A good guy. I had my differences with him on a number of levels, but when all is said and done he did a hell of a lot for this and other communities. If it wasn't for Bobby, osCommerce would not be where it is now. RIP & YNWA Bobby.
Guest Posted June 25, 2010 Posted June 25, 2010 Damn.. I just talked with him a few weeks ago too. He did a lot of this community.. Burt you said it right. RIP Bobby.
crash3903 Posted June 25, 2010 Posted June 25, 2010 Vey sad news and to lose a guy so young is hideous. I know how that feels. My sympathies go to his family at this very difficult time. Thanks Bobby for all the help you provided to this community. Maybe Harold you will put your differences aside and send some flowers to Bobby and maybe a contribution to the fund for bobbys illness that took his life? Regards Mark Regards Mark A Reynolds

pbor1234 Posted June 25, 2010 Posted June 25, 2010 This is really sad news to hear. I've used quite some of the contributions that Bobby made; his work improved the quality in major steps; Thanks for that! Maybe strange question but has this news be confimed by anyone? Paul

Debs Posted June 27, 2010 Posted June 27, 2010 Sad news indeed. I doubt oscommerce would be where it is today without his hard work. He raised the bar with his great contributions. He was a good guy too, he spent hours helping me with my first store some years ago. He will be missed! Prayers for his family
