OT: Farewell Kevin

Dec 16, 2013 12 Replies

Hi Everyone,



I'm posting to let everyone know that my father, Kevin Gallimore, died last week. (I assume that his lack of posts was probably a tip-off.) He was 61.



The funeral home is currently hosting a page with the obit and other information:

I'm sure that I'll be back in a few months to get help finding all of his large machine tools good homes.



Eric Gallimore (son of axolotl)


I looked back through a sample of his posts, and it appears he posted only on-topic material to this newsgroup, and never crossed Mark Wieber's path. I think we can rest assured that Mark Wieber, the asshole from Taft, CA, will not be claiming that Kevin met with a bad end due to Wieber's associates' criminal acts.

My condolences to you and your family. I didn't realize he was my age.

Your link didn't work. I found it here:

My condolences. I only knew him through this group, but his comments were always helpful and to the point.

He will be missed.

Wow. Not only almost the same age as I am, but our wok paths may well have crossed at Bell Labs or Fort Monmouth. Axolotl was certainly one of the good voices around here, and he will be missed.

Please accept my condolences on the loss of your father. Its hard to lose a parent at anytime, but 61 is such a young age.

My condolences , I know how it feels . Your father will be missed .

Very sorry to hear that bad news. He will be missed by me personally.

Eric, condolences on losing your dad. I hope you were close enough to not have missed telling him all the things you wanted to, while he was still alive. I saw my dad's death coming and talked with him the evening before he died. His MD gave him 3 years for the congestive heart failure to run its course, and he passed within a couple days of that date, 3 years later, after only a week of decreased livelihood. I'm glad that both he and Kevin didn't suffer long.

Kevin will be missed here.

Ciao!

Condolences Eric.

Although I never met or conversed, I recall axolotl's posts going back a fair time.

Thank you for letting people here know about your dads passing.

Best regards.

Please accept my condolences.

Thank you for taking the time to let us know.

Wes

Eric Thank you for letting us know. He will be missed.
