Dear Members of the Doll Forum,
With tremendous sorrow, I regret to inform you that our dear friend and fellow Doll Forum member Slate has passed away. He was a super moderator and managed both the Latex Inflatables and Other Inflatables forums.
I am sure that those of you who knew him would agree with me, that he was not only a cherished friend, but was also one of the most kind and loving people among us. His contributions to the Doll Forum are legendary. He always brought with him a bright, cheery attitude, always with kind words for everyone.
Sadly, today I received a letter in the mail from Donna, Slate's wife:
For those of you who would like to revisit Slate's writings and photography, here are some links to use:Sad news - Scott, AKA, Slate crossed-over on Christmas night.
He had asked me to let you and Slate's friends know at the forum.
Our internet & email is down for a while, so I am sending these
materials now.
Scott had a difficult road, but he always kept his great humor
and expressed love - the end day was peaceful for him.
Love greatly everyday
and
Peace be with you.
Thanks for your friendship
- Donna

Donna has sent me more information and materials which I will post here in a day or two, after I can gain access to a good scanner.
Please remember Scott/Slate in your heart and your prayers. His passing is an incredible loss to us all.
