Fred Olson was one of the greats among us in terms of his contribution
To all members of the community with his all-encompassing smile and
Open heart.

While I have not been able to make it to Tucson for a few years, now, when
I did I never failed to stop by and say hi to Fred who was a virtual
Conduit of light, love and good vibes which he freely bequeathed
to all.

When I ?stepped in it? (more than a couple of times) due to my ego
And/or na?vet? and/or stupidity, Fred never faltered in his good will.
I will never forget that even at my worst, Fred stayed true to being his best.

What a guy.

What a loss for the meteoritic community.

Michael Blood
