Dear Fellow Engineers, Heartbreaking we lost him so soon, just like his mentor Richard Epworth. Life is not fair. He was my first boss at BNR/Nortel and the best. He had this crazy idea for chirp measurement of lasers when I joined as new grad and put me on
it and led me to some interesting work (it’s been downhill ever since). Super smart, a great leader and friend and transformational leader before that became a thing that we appreciate as being a great quality. I was trying to headhunt him away from Finisar
before he passed (as I was Bill Ryall at Cisco before he passed, I must stop doing that). He also gave me shit for being an idiot in life but unfortunately I only listened to him at work. Free _expression_ dancing, health freak (was always pumping iron at
Nortel Harlow) it is not fair we lose the best first sometimes. Love and condolences to his family and friends. Ross To unsubscribe from the STDS-802-3-DIALOG list, click the following link: https://listserv.ieee.org/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=STDS-802-3-DIALOG&A=1 |
