[Missouri-l] Accessible World & Talking Communities Celebrate the Life of George buys, march 23, 2010

[Nancy Lynn]

        In Memorial
Dear Friends,

It is with deep sorrow that we at Talking Communities and 
Accessibleworld.org announce the passing of our CEO. And Founder, Mr. George 
Buys. Sadly, George passed away on March 4, 2010.

George used his public profile to raise awareness about the needs of the 
blind and visually impaired: He understood the importance of providing equal 
access to the World Wide Web. Talking Communities is an example of George 
accomplishing his goal. He has contributed too many lives... Rest in Peace 
George. You will be sadly missed.

In order to celebrate the life of this great man, we are planning a Memorial 
on Tuesday March 23, to honor his dedication and service to us all.

Time: 5:00 PM PDT, 6:00 PM MDT, 7:00 PM CDT, 8:00 PM EDT
         and elsewhere in the world Wednesday 0:00 GMT.

Approximately 15 minutes prior to the event start time; go to the Accessible 
World Auditorium at:
