I received a message from Anne Bredon a
few days ago, stating, simply: Glen died suddently on May
8.
....
If you would like to send a positive
message about Glen and yourself or others that you know who
were
affected by Glen in positive ways, I will
start a collection and forward the final package to Mrs.
Bredon.

That is sad news. Merlin and
Block Warden made Glen Bredon one of the first guys I noticed as
a
big time Apple II
developer.

From: Beverly Cadieux
(A2MG)
Indeed. Possibly the greatest Apple II
developer of all. Somehow just a sentence or two can't
begin
to convey the profound effect this work
had on our Apple II lives.
.
The Apple II Mail Group has gathered
dozens of messages from our members which will be
forwarded
to Glen's family.

From: Charles T. Turley
(GSWV)
Glen Bredon was a giant of a programmer
in the Apple II world. He will be dearly missed! I was
very
sad to learn of his
death.
.
Glen Bredon was a retired Math Professor
from Rutgers Univ. in New Jersey. When I talked
to
Dr. Hank Levinson (also a retired Math
Professor at Rutgers Univ.) this morning he advised me
that
the flags at all the Rutgers University
campus' in New Jersey will be flown at half mast in
honor
of Dr. Glen Bredon.
.
He was a fine man and a wonderful
person. We lost a large pillar within the Apple II world
with
his passing.

I am enclosing a Stuffit file containing a
short Basic program to fix three Y2K bugs

you could upload it to your archives, since
I am not allowed, or don't know how.
Thanks.
