XEmacs Hacker Passes Away

As found on the XEmacs site:

The XEmacs Project notes with sadness the untimely passing of J. Pitts Jarvis, III, of Palo Alto, CA. Jarvis was responsible for the ports of XEmacs 19.14 to MacOS 8, and of XEmacs 21.5.9 to Mac OS X (the "Carbon" branch). We will miss his presence as we integrate his work.

His family has posted an obituary and a photograph.
