[shootist16]

For those of you that don't know, Dr. Welch passed away.

See this link for more details:

I know that he spent a lot of time here and contributed a lot of knowledge.

RIP Doc, you will be missed.

Thats too bad............He had some great posts here.

We should all make sure that somehow his CPF-ARC light gets produced.

I will remember Walt for the iniative and responsibility that he took to order Carley lamps on many occasions. He would front the order and make the required minimum purchase so that all of us here could get our hands on those Carley lamps.

From the little I knew of Walt he was a very kind and intelligent man who contributed many well written and informative posts.

Walt you will be missed,

People,

it seems that we have two topics regarding Walt's passing, both open at the same time.
Besides this one, there is another Topic, headed

"Sad Thread from Bladeforums [Walt Welch, R.I.P.]"

@ http://www.candlepowerforums.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=22&t=000162

Since this is an In Memoriam subject, perhaps we should all post our tributes there, in the one place.
shootist16, Keith, Bucky, would you please consider reposting there ?

I'm quite sure that his family and loved ones will visit to read the posts on CPF, and it's probably better to put them in one place.

I will always remember him as the best thing that ever happened to MagLite.

He made a real difference.
