[Tugindia] Eitan Gurari -- Condolences

[Manjusha Joshi]

Dear TeX users,

I learnt many   things about LaTeX from  website of Eitan Gurari in my
initial stage of learning LaTeX.
He wrote very clearly. I was thinking that in one of the TUG meetings I can
catch him and get chance to  discuss with him.


 I seen his name in the TUG-09  list of speakers. And I thought again I
missed to meet him since I am not attending TUG meeting this time. And now,
sadly I realised I can never meet  him in any TUG meetings. :-(
