Some of you knew rich brown (he preferred it lower case).  He had been a
fan since the '50s, wrote SF professionally in the '70s, wrote "The
Clubhouse" in AMAZING STORIES in the late '70s, and has been active on
the major fannish e-lists in recent times.  He was one of my best
friends for the better part of the nearly 50 years I've known him; his
daughter and my daughter are best friends.  He died today in Arlington
Hospital at about 1:00 PM.  He had been admitted Memorial Day with one
problem (relating to a prior surgery) and developed another, pneumonia.
Earlier this week his kidneys began to fail.  But none of us thought he
wouldn't overcome all this, with the benefits of modern medical
science.  We were wrong.
