[PD] RIP Ed Kelly

[Alexandre Torres Porres]

Nice and Beatiful Dan. I posted a little something on instagram and
facebook as well that I'd also like to share with you.

that's mark, me and Ed, at PdCon16, but this was also my birthday and this
was a birthday pic with my Pd buddies, we went out later to celebrate my
39th birthday.

Back in 2009 when we hosted the convention in Brazil, Ed was bitten by a
tropical spider and his hand got quite swollen, I hope we had given him a
nicer welcome to the jungle...

I met him in 2007 at the PdCon in Montreal and loved him right away. I
guess we also bonded over a silly sense of humor.

When I found out my nephew was autistic, I reached Ed for guidance and
help, cause I knew his son was also on the spectrum, he was really nice and
gave me a lot of attention and information!

He was the life of the party and he'll be missed.

RIP "Sir" Edward Kelly, as I used to call him.

cheers
