Larry McVoy:
I've always morned that he died so early. I would have liked to talk
to him, I love troff to this day.

Me too (s/morn/mourn/, of course). I might even have had the
chance to work with him.
The original UNIX crowd were all really neat characters, albeit
sometimes a trifle overly characterful. All nice guys to work
with, too, at least those who were still around when I was at
1127.
