Death of Pete E.

One of the posters on this forum as well as others such as WLC and Planet-Love (now known as Goodwife), has passed away. He died in Cali on Friday at 5 am from complications after undergoing intestinal surgery. I did not know him in real life but he was a true prince of the cyberworld. Adios, amigo.

What a tragedy I had the pleasure of meeting Pete.A really nice person.He once invited my friend and i over to his Apartment.And his Girlfriend Beatrice cooked dinner for us.A very nice Couple.Pete was waiting a long time for his Colon to heal enough so that he could have this Surgery done.Pete mentioned that Doctors in the U.S. would not perform this particular Surgery because it is too risky and that here in Colombia there are Surgeons that would perform the Surgery.

I never met him when I was in Cali, but he did contribute a lot of reliable information about Cali on this forum and I'm sorry to hear that he has passed away. To all his friends and family that read this forum; my condolences.

Sincerely,
Desi
