Our good friend Honoluludesktop has passed away.
-
Like most people here I didn't know him personally, but Honolulu's passing has affected me much harder than I would have expected. Perhaps because this is such a close-knit little community. I've never been very good at expressing myself, so I'll just say RIP, Honolulu.

. It did. Was he that old?
I learned a lot from this community and I'm not talking about sketchup, but about dedication, about selflessness. Let's just hope we will not get such news in near future.Rest in peace!
No, I believe Wesley was only 65 or there abouts. I will try to locate his daughter's, Elizabeth's address and send all these heart felt wishes. I am sure it will bring her some small comfort knowing more about an area of Wesley's life that she may not have been aware of.

He had many friends his daughter may not be aware of, even if we are online, we are real people displaced by geography only.

Mike, thank you for the news. It is very sad news. I am fortunate to have had a moment to seek advice and insight from Wesley via pm. Just one of the lucky members that was able to tap into one of the forums responsible and helpful power members. My thoughts are with his family and the design communities in California and Hawaii that will miss him.
-
one of the great things about our architectural profession is that our structures and teachings last long after we are gone... perhaps someone could put together a small gallery of Wesley's work in honor...
-
.......So so Sad.
and may be his insightful contributions in a single post.
May his gentle soul rest in the bossom of the Lord. -
This is sad news. He was a nice guy. May he rest in peace.

He was always very kind, helpful and humble - i'm very sorry to hear... Peace...................

Puts alot of our problems in perspective doesn't it?
I only lurk at you very talented people often and was always touched by his kindness. -
Hi,
I know him not personally but as a forum member, I will miss him also. But it's always sad when someone leaves us.

Wow! What a bolt out of the blue. Wesley was a great character and a very valuable contributor to this forum. I will very much miss chatting with him. So very sad...and so very young in this day and age. My thoughts are with his family; they must be devastated.
Having spent the whole of last weekend in hospital myself, wired up like a cyborg after collapsing in the bathroom, it really makes you realise how tenuous life can be. (Turns out it was just a hit and run virus that resulted in my blood pressure going through the floor for a few hours...scary though)
I really will miss his company and kind comments. -
WOW, sad news.
Had wondered recently why I hadn't seen posts from him. Though I never interacted with him did enjoy his posts and felt a kinship as he was the closest forum member to where I live that I was aware of.
