A Death In The Fodors Family
 

I don't know how often he may have posted here, but we've lost a Fodorite overnight. Neil_Oz is no longer with us, and a long-time poster from the Europe and The Lounge Fora broke the news to us in The Lounge:

He was a gentleman, and may he RIP.

I'm sorry to hear of Neil's passing. I remember he posted links here to his daughter's time in VN that were a wonderful counterpoint to the usual traveler's tales, as she was living in VN.

His knowledge of China was unquestioned. His love of his children he often wrote about was sincere. We will miss his wit here, he was a true gentleman. Our condolences to his family.

Aloha Oe Neil!

How sad. A true gentlemen and a font of travel knowledge. Our sincere condolences to his family

OMG how awful, i read many of his posts, he really will be missed here. Condolences to his family

Sorry to hear this news. He will, indeed, be missed here. My condolences to his family.

RIP Neil. For sure he will be missed, of course by his family, and many here on Fodors.

Very sorry to hear that. Thanks for posting the link.

I've seen many postings by him. Thank you for letting us know and condolences to his family.

My deepest sympathy to his family. No question he wrote from his heart about China and willing to share the true picture. A fine man indeed, and will be missed here.

Bookchick, Thanks for forwarding the sad news. He certainly participated heavily in Fodors.

RIP. Very sad for all of us.

Oh that is terrible news. Condolences to his wife and family

Dear Fodorites, Neil's beautiful wife Robyn has posted a message in the Lounge on the thread regarding the sad news about Neil which I am sure you will all want to read. I will also let her know about this thread and the two threads in the Australia Forum.
