    Remember Mr. Fitz - anyone?

    Later on he changed his screen name to "Still Mr. Fitz" for some reason. The link below is to one of his last posts about the birth of his grandson. I posted this in VF vs Off Topic because I figured more people who know him would more likely read VF since he mostly posted in this forum.

    I've been thinking about him on and off for a long time. I lost his email address when I changed to DSL - actually Verizon deleted all my old email addresses. I would love to have his email again if anyone has it.

    I know he had some type of illness, but I think it was in remission and he was doing well - he even bought himself a D70. I hope and pray he is okay.

    He helped me a great deal in my photography. I have fond memories of him as he has a generous heart. One time I told him that a specific image of his was a work of art. A week later I got it in the mail! I miss him, and I wish I had asked before now. I hope I can contact him.

    Has anyone been in contact with him at all or know if he is okay?

    Mr Fitz--- He was awesome-- his comments/critiques generally drove me bonkers---but in the end he was an integral part here, in improving my phtography drastically. let us know what you find...
    "I was not trying to be shocking, or to be a pioneer.
    I wasn't trying to change society, or to be ahead of my time.
    I didn't think of myself as liberated, and I don't believe that I did anything important.
    I was just myself. I didn't know any other way to be, or any other way to live."
