I did not find a thread about those in the ski industry that have passed, so why not start one. There have been a few obituary posts in different parts of the forum but they may have been in related specific sections of the forum. If there is one I missed than I ask if they could be merged. Based on many on the posts here, the ski industry at least in the USA is ageing. It would be nice to share some of the contributions made to improve our sport and learn about some wonderful people.
