Just read on Amiga-News.de that Fred Fish passed away last Friday.

Another sad day in Amiga history.

Condolences.

Tucked away somewhere I'm sure I still have some Fred Fish disks. Iconic good guys (and girls) are growing rarer in Amiga circles. Sadly missed.

Very sad. Wonder how many current Amigans know of Fred's contribution to the Amiga scene.

Yes, very sad news indeed. He did a lot for the amiga community.

He was also responsible for the GeekGadgets project. Cygnix is based on it
and I think I never had the idea to create Cygnix without it.

Condolences.

Another cornerstone from the Amigascene that is gone.

I remember the old magazines where you had Fred Fish's
his disks on many pages. It was the pre-aminet time. I almost
broke my CD32 to try to download those cd's to my Amiga.

My condolences.

Sad indeed. Fred Fish was one of the real pioneers of the Amiga... I think I still have all 1000 Fish disks around somewhere...

My Condolences as well.
Seriously, if you do want to contact me write me a mail. You're more likely to get a reply then.

I remember the main reason I used to attend our local user group was to get the latest batch of Fish disks. My heart-felt condolences to his family...

Condolences to his family from me too

I remember the time when i bought his disks from a store where
they were kept in drawers. My eyes started to get bigger when
the keeper opened them up...true spirit, thanks for this time, Fred!
