I missed seeing this.  jan howard finder was RFF's best friend.   He supported us by being an original Talking RFF.  He was in a Reno hospital the last time I saw him.  He was to help with the Renovation RFF/About SF road show RE: RIP Wombat  Published by Kevin   On February 23, 2013 in Albany, New York, one of ConFrancisco’s Guests of Honor, jan howard finder (known as “Wombat”), died after a long battle with prostate cancer. He was 73 years old. His obituary in the Albany Times-Union includes the 1993 Worldcon as one that “[solidified] his place in the ranks of fan culture” and details his interests and activities in Fandom. SFSFC sends our condolences to his girlfriend, Lin Daniel, and shares our regret in the passing of one of Fandom’s colorful figures  Memorial donations are being asked to go towards The Wombat Foundation.  posted by: David-Glenn Anderson

DGA:  Can  someone use my C3 membership?

Sorry I will not attend C3 this year.  I would like to see someone from a Westercon attend and am offering my membership.    Westercon 66 does have much to share with C3 IMO.  San Diego is bidding for Westercon 68.  Utah 2014 combines CONduit 2014 and Westercon 67.   What can they and the SWOCpeople do to help make Westercon's stronger?    dga...@gmail.com
