> Sad news.  Virgil Smith passed away this morning.  He had given up tuning
> and auctioned off all of his tools a few years ago.  He was mentally active
> up to the end and even came to meetings on occasion, when someone would
> bring him and his wheel chair.  Virgil gave much time, effort, and devotion
> to PTG and did all he could to help bring up the standards of tuning and
> voicing.  He will be missed here, but has rejoined many of his loved ones in
> the better place.
