Jack Williamson 1908-2006
From the ICFA mailing list:
Betty Williamson has sent a message today to friends and relatives that Jack Williamson has passed away.
Betty writes:
Hello dear friends and family,
This is to let you know that our beloved Jack Williamson died this afternoon at 3:22 p.m. He was in his study, surrounded by people he loved who loved him. It could not have been better.
Jack consented to a memorial service because I told him there were a lot of people who would want to get together to share wonderful memories. We will let all of you know when that is set.
Thank you for your friendship and love to Jack. He will be missed by all of us, but he was very ready to die. He has told me many, many times, "I have lived a wonderful life and I will die with no regrets."
I am glad I got to meet Jack, if briefly, at Lonestarcon back in 1997. He was there at the beginning in the 1920's and saw science fiction through to the 21st century.
