[Pepper II]

We communicated frequently mostly about the various Pleasure verlag (publisher) magazine threads. He was German and generously shared his magazine collection with us. His contribution to VEF is unparallelled. For those who don't frequent the magazine section he has scanned and posted approximately 20,000 magazine pages and he wasn't finished, yet! He had a chronic heart condition and was in and out of the hospital quite often. He never talked about it much; I guess he did not want to burden others with his problems. We had talked just four days before his death and he didn't mention he had suffered a heart attack and was currently in the hospital again. He succumbed on October 21, 2014. He is survived by his wife and daughter and was only 44 years old. He will be missed but not forgotten. Rest in peace, Matz.
