Willy,
It is very sad to lose such an OB of very high calibre! He has indeed been very supportive in all tracks, that's why I've known him so much without having ever seen him! 
Actions speak louder than words!
May the good Lord grant him eternal peace!
Deepest condolences to the family and to all.
