Re: Karl Hoffman has passed

Most of the people online will know him as Nandi, and the owner of cutting edge muscle.
Truly a sad occurance. THose of you that know him or of him it is easily stated that he was the greatest mind in our community. At least in my opinion. Karl Hoffman is a man I learned quite a lot from and his life both here and offline will be missed

Dear Friends

I know Karl/Nandi did not mean to leave us in such a hurry. It was
totally unplanned, yet I hope painless. Karl died of a heart attack in
the early hours of Thursday morning. I was away visiting my mother.
When I returned I found him cold and blue many hours dead. He had been
listening to some peaceful music, having a glass of wine, and eating a
sandwhich. It appears it was quick and painless.

He is a great loss to me, and I am sure to many of you as well, as he
considered you friends and loved to write for you and answer any
questions you may of had. You gave him real meaning to his life, and I
thank you from the bottom of my heart.

If there is some article, or writing, that you may have been expecting
from him, I can try to find it in his archives, but I cannot promise to
be successful. I am not medically trained and my expertise lies
elsewhere. I am sorry I will not be able to fill his place.

Karl/Nandi is going to be cremated, placed in a cast bronze urn with
birds on it, and I am going to keep him with me. There will be no funeral.

We have only our cats and bird. Karl was especially attached to the
bird.We lived alone in our own special place. It is very empty now.

If there are others who need to know this information, please pass it
on. I never read his emails or monitored the sites he visited. Perhaps
some of you will know how to let his following know in a kind and loving
manner, as that is how Karl was.

I miss him very much.

Elaine
