In Memorium: Rich ( Anole) Steincross Has Passed Away. May He Rest in Peace

[WTguy]

Very sad indeed. And make no mistake this was his family, just wish I could have known him outside this forum, as he appeared to be a very helpful and sincere individual with a keen sense of humor. RIP

Wow just stumbled upon this thread and am shocked. I searched on line and could not find an obituary. How sad that only a few people will know of his passing.

I've searched for an obituary but have had no luck. Do you know if one has been published?

This was tough news to read, finally, but I'm glad the information was posted. I haven't been spending much time on the forum for the last couple of years or so, and just now decided to try to do some catching up. Still into fta, but got interested in other electronic-areas, like OTA=tv dxing, and police scanner radios, listening in on the aircraft freqs a lot too. Must've been about the time 'nole was diagnosed-I noticed that he hadn't been on forum a lot, was one reason I stopped checking in here myself. I enjoyed Rich's humor, and he was really swift on electronics, used to PM a lot with him. And, I posted several anole pics in my messages 3-4yrs ago, mostly for his enjoyment- like watching the little fellows around the yard/garden here. I'll miss him a lot.

Yes, it was very, very sad.

Just read about this nearly two years later. I have definitely been away from the hobby too long. Very saddened to hear of Anole's passing. He was an extremely helpful member here on the forum, as well as other forums, and was a friendly and knowledgeable voice of the TVRO hobby. May he rest in peace!
