[Chapter-delegates] Passing of David Vyorst

[Veni Markovski]

Oh, no!
This is such a terrible, terrible sad news!
We knew each other for ages; when I moved to DC in 2009, we engaged
equally passionately in the re-establishment of the ISOC DC chapter, and
then he took it under his "auspices", so to speak, and made it a vibrant
chapter - with the help of other folks from the greater Washington DC
area. He was instrumental in the preparations of the IGF-USA, and other
events of value in DC.

It is really, really sad to hear this news!!!!

Dear all,
David was a true ISOC person; always cool and friendly, always looking
what more to do for ISOC, for the broader Internet community... He will
truly be missed...

My condolences to friends and family members.

It is a tragic day today.

On behalf of ISOC Bulgaria,

Veni
