From: Chuck Newby (APPLESEEDS)
I received a message from Anne Bredon a few days ago, stating,  simply: Glen died suddently on May 8.
 ....
If you would like to send a positive message about Glen and yourself or others that you know who were
affected by Glen in positive ways, I will start a collection and forward the final package to Mrs. Bredon.

From: Rubywand
That is sad news. Merlin and Block Warden made Glen Bredon one of the first guys I noticed as a
big time Apple II developer.
.

From: Beverly Cadieux (A2MG)
Indeed. Possibly the greatest Apple II developer of all. Somehow just a sentence or two can't begin
to convey the profound effect this work had on our Apple II lives.
.
The Apple II Mail Group has gathered dozens of messages from our members which will be forwarded
to Glen's family.
.

From: Charles T. Turley (GSWV)
Glen Bredon was a giant of a programmer in the Apple II world.  He will be dearly missed!  I was very
sad to learn of his death.
.
Glen Bredon was a retired Math Professor from Rutgers Univ. in New Jersey. When I talked to
Dr. Hank Levinson (also a retired Math Professor at Rutgers Univ.) this morning  he advised me that
the flags at all the Rutgers University campus' in New Jersey will be flown at half mast in honor
of Dr. Glen Bredon.
.
He was a fine man and a wonderful person.  We lost a large pillar within the Apple II world with
his passing.

Y2k Patcher
 

I am enclosing a Stuffit file containing a short Basic program to fix three Y2K bugs
I have found in PRODOS/P8, Basic.system and PRO.FST.  I would be grateful if
you could upload it to your archives, since I am not allowed, or don't know how.
Thanks.
