Sad news about one of our memebers: LetItRev
http://news.rgj.com/apps/pbcs.dll/ar...603040322/1002
Franz (LetItRev) was out snowboarding, celebrating is 40th Birthday a few days ago and hit a tree. He passed on from the resulting injuries. Franz didn't show up to every meet, but he is someone I'd consider a regular. He'd show up whenever his work as a DJ or volunteer Firefighter allowed him to. As a club, I think we should take up a collection for his wife and daughter, to help with the expense of the funeral or whatever they might need. I don't know how to set something like that up, so hopefully someone else can help out in that area. I will edit this post as necessary, but for now lets take a moment to remember Franz. Edit: SECCS is taking donations for Franz's family via our PayPal account. If you'd like to help, please send to paypal@seccs.org. Any amount is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I can check with North Tahoe Fire to see how we can help or if they have any family contact. He was a cool guy and I wish I got to know him better.

I got the call from his wife's (Kim) friend Thursday night about his passing. She is very broken down right now which is completly understandable. I will keep in touch with her and get the details about the service and anything we can do to help. I have their contact information if we would like to do something for his family or if can offer any assistance.
He was a great friend and he will be missed dearly.

Again, I'm speechless from the news and hope that there is something that we as a club can do to help the family of our friend. Very sad news.

Such horrible news. I can say that I looked forward to his thoughts on stuff about radio and all kinds of interesting subjects. My heart goes out to his loved ones.

This is some terrible news. Franz was a good guy, and came around quite a bit when his schedule allowed. Things will certainly be different without him around.
We'll miss you man, RIP. Art, please let me know where to send any donations, and whether or not the SECCS paypal address can be used to help coordinate.

It sucks to think how easy it is for a life to end.
I only met Franz once and we had a blast. We were at the Peppermill with a group of SECCS members - 2-something-am and talking all kinds of shit at the black jack tables while Nick got owned by the house for listening to us. Franz was hilarious RIP |
