Perry DeAngelis: Aug 22, 1963 - Aug 19, 2007

Skepticism lost one of it's stars last week when Perry DeAngelis, co-founder of The New England Skeptical Society and panelist on The Skeptic's Guide to the Universe podcast, died on Sunday, August 19th, after a long battle with a number of chronic illnesses. Perry was an unwavering advocate of scientific skepticism and will be greatly missed by the entire skeptic community.

A memorial fund in his honor has been set up by SGUFans.net in conjunction with the NESS. The money will be to be put to use on an ongoing project to be started in his name.
