Shocked to hear this news, Fernando was such a lovely man to correspond with.
I always welcomed his considered responses on my enquiry's and I learnt so much from him.

I purchased some items off him over the years and we never discussed price as he was always very very fair with his dealings.

I will always think of him when I look at these items in my collection.

If this thread is being forwarded to his family, my condolences to you both, you had a great Husband and Father.

RIP

Ken

Vey sad news indeed and an incredible loss not only to his family and close friends, but to this community that mostly only saw a single facet of him. He will be sorely missed.

I just heard the news (always out of the loop, I guess). Very sad news and I know he will be greatly missed. I am proud to own several of the great items he chose to part with over the years and this will help me remember him more personally-
