It is with great sadness that I have to let you know that Milan passed away
last night. I don't at this time know the cause of death. Unfortunately I
have to share the news this way as his family has been unable to access his
digital files.

If you are friends with Milan or know people that are friends of his that
aren't on this list, please contact me.

Thanks

Bruce
