[Chapter-delegates] Sad news: John More has passed away

[Christine Saegesser]

This is very sad news indeed.

We had included a paragraph about John in our last chapter newsletter (“A Look ahead” message). I’m sharing it here for those of you who may have missed it earlier:

Remembering John More
=====================
We are deeply saddened by the news of John More's passing. John tirelessly contributed to our shared vision and mission through various roles over the years, including as chapter leader of the Internet Society's US Washington DC chapter and his involvement with the IGF USA. He was one of the initiators of the Internet Society's Chapters Advisory Council and Nominations and Elections chair of its Steering Committee. John worked continuously and selflessly for the good of the Internet and the people using it. He was a friend, advisor, and mentor to many of us. Staff and community members from around the world will miss John dearly.

Best,

Christine

Dear friends,
It is with a very heavy heart that I share the sad news that our colleague
John More, an active participant in this mailing list, has passed away.

John was a good person, deeply involved with a lot of good causes, among
them the rejuvenation of ISOC Washington DC chapter.

You can find a lot of his comments in th chapter delegates list, and see
his passion not only about the Greater Washington DC chapter, but also
about ISOC, and the Internet.

He is already missed.

***
A memorial service will be held at St. Johns Episcopal Church, 1525 H
Street NW, Washington DC, 20005, on Saturday, November 5, 2022, at 2:00 p.m.
