Hi all. It is with greatest sorrow that I must inform you that Herb Morse (Lizardo) died on 12-30 at 8PM. He had surgery for cancer 16 days ago and never came out of it. I needn't tell you of the contributions he made over the last ten years in our hobby. The community lost an icon. I knew Herb for ten years and rarely did a day go by that we didn't e-mail or talk on the phone. I will receive more information from his wife later on today and will pass it along to you.

Wow, terrible news Don! I interacted with Lizardo at BFU, he always had an energy and great sense of humor, my condolences to his family!
 
Hello Don Moser ... ( running to shake your hand ) Great to see you again. :wavey:

I am very sorry to hear about Lizardo; he was always a great community contributor; helping others was second nature to him it seemed; a great guy who will certainly be missed. My condolences to his family and FS friends.
 
The world turns and we, the actors, depart the stage one by one.

Sorry to hear of the death of someone who gave so much to our hobby. My condolences to you Don, his family, and friends.

Herb was a great guy and a wonderful simming friend to many of us. Much good that'll do him now, eh? But hang on..... at least some of us believe in coming back in some form at some time or other. I am pretty sure that if and when Herb returns he'll be a one-eyed eagle and soar our real and virtual skies with us again. Dear friend, rest in peace... and deepfelt condolences to Amy and his children, family and friends.
 
Shocked! :isadizzy: Thanks for the info, sad as it is, Don. Been pals with Herb for what seems like eons....since the early, early days of BFU. He really was a good guy with a great sense of humor and always a helping hand.

I will miss him, for sure. :USA-flag:
 
Thank you all. I have passed along your comments as a community to Herb's wife Amy. I too appreciate your thoughts.

Don

Great to see you too, Milton! :ernae:
 
Hey All,

I too was a BFUer. I remember Lizardo well - always tinkering with flight models. He will be missed. RIP Herb.

I didn't know who he was, but I wish his family well and for him, rest.
 
Dang!!!! Herb was a good friend and collaborator on several of my flight sim projects. I'm sorry to hear he has passed.

Fair skies my friend...
