I just received some very sad news from Kenny West, of PalmGear:

Bozidar Benc of Launcher X fame deceased Submitted by Kenny West; PalmGear.com March 24, 2004 05:18 PM

I received a phone call from Will Lau (Snapper Mail) 03/24/2004 with the terrible news that a legend to the Palm OS software world, as well as a dear and close friend, passed away. Bozidar was one of the first software developers whose software was listed at PalmGear.com (then known as PilotGear.com). Bozidar was involved in a car accident in February and while hopes were high for a full recovery his condition worsened and he was not able to overcome the internal injuries.

If you are not familiar with Bozidar here is an article by PocketGoddess

Myself, as well as all the staff at PalmGear.com and the Palm community as a whole, will greatly miss him. His contributions, professionalism and class were above reproach.

Bozidar was 47 years old and is survived by his wife and two daughters.

We encourage you to post replies in the thread at ClieSource which we are told is being read by his family.

Will Lau indicates that SnapperFish will continue to support Launcher X.

Regards,

Kenny West
