When I ventured for the first time to built my first PC about 2 and half years ago, everything I knew about computers was from the outside, not from the inside. I still have a fresh memory of my initial questions which I posted on this forum and Sonny was of the first to reply. I asked what I must assemble before I begin. He recited some items and then added something like don't forget to get an extra bag of screws. And if you run into problem, post again and we will guide you through.

Those words--pure, simple and free of condescension--lifted my morale and sustained me throughout the ideal--for an ordeal it was. The PC won't boot! Sonny, along with a few other memembers of this Forum, stayed with me until the project was successfully completed.
Sonny's presence was comforting beyond belief.

Sonny, you were like a father to me, holding my hand as I struggled to learn how to stand. I owe you an eternal and lasting debt of gratitude which I can never repay. The like of you I may not see again for some time to come.

If perchance you can still hear and understand me, let me then bid you farewell in words borrowed from the immortal bard:

Now cracks a noble heart,
Good night, sweet prince
And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.

Like many others on this Forum, I will miss your wisdom and kindness.
