[Ads-l] Sad news: former ADS-L member Samuel Clements

[Bonnie Taylor-Blake]

I don't recall this news being announced here before, so I thought I'd
share that former ADS-L poster Sam Clements has passed away.

As old-timers will recall, Sam contributed significantly on a myriad
of topics and was just an all-around good guy.

I was fortunate to have met him elsewhere on the internet in the late
'90s. Among other things, we shared interests in North Carolina
barbeque and "the whole nine yards." (I followed Sam here 20 years ago
when he suggested I join up and I'm glad I did.)

Best to all,
Bonnie
