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.

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

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.

Condolences to his family from me as well. I have very fond memories of Fred Fish's contribution to the Amiga scene back when it was really fun.

@klesterjr 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.

@klesterjr 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...
