RIP Tom Negrino, on his own terms.

In May of 2016 Tom Negrino (an early MeFite), author of numerous books on Macintosh computers and software and a contributing editor or Macworld Magazine shared with the world he had terminal cancer after a lifelong battle with his own health. Last week the Healdsburg Tribune wrote of him living and dying on his own terms with his wife and co-author Dori Smith (an even earlier MeFite). Tom died 15th March 2017, exercising California's End of Life Option Act. Before his death he asked for any donations to The Tom Negrino Memorial Fund to be directed to App Camp for Girls.

This post was deleted for the following reason: Hey, do me a favor and throw this up on MeTa since it's a Mefite - we don't have to fiddle with the fundraiser that way. either. Thanks. -- restless_nomad
