Hello Mike,

Thanks. Gordon helped me with so many things. He's left a very big hole in

With very best wishes,

Keith

Hello Keith,

I was also sorry to here of Gordon's death; he was of great assistance when
we were able to use Radio Downloader.

Cheers,

Mike

Hi Keith,

I knew Gordon by name and may have spoken to him once or twice.  I am so
sorry to learn of his sad passing and your great loss of such a good friend.
