Goodbye Gene McCullagh

[Victoria Bampton]

I'm sad to have to share the news that our friend and fellow Lightroom Guru, @Gene McCullagh, died yesterday. He's been a core member of the Lightroom community for many years, running the Lightroom Secrets website, and I was privileged to count him as a friend. He will be missed.

Very sad news, Victoria, but I appreciate you letting us know. So often people are actively involved in a forum and suddenly are no longer posting. And while I realize that we are all entitled to our privacy, as a small and friendly forum, we are somewhat of a community and we do develop online connections with one another. Sometimes we might be able to help a member in tough time, even if it is just a post of support or advice, and sometimes we need to bring closure and pay our respects to those we have lost.

Very true Ken. I feel like I know some of my online colleagues better than some members of my own family!

A very sad day indeed.... Gene was a great guy and a big Lightroom supporter who was involved from the early days.
R.I.P. my friend...
