Passing of an Audiogon Member


Posting this on behalf of another member and for those forum members who knew Ezra.

Yesterday, I received the sad news of the passing of Ezra (@audioezra) suddenly, post surgery. He is survived by his wife, Vernecia, and members of his family and his Pastoral flock.

Ezra graciously and with open arms invited me to his home, despite not knowing me personally, to audition speakers I was interested in. That visit remains strong in my memories and senses and was a wonderful experience.

I encourage members in the greater Chicagoland area, who knew him well, to add more.

Dormit In Pace, Ezra.

RIP Ezra.  I bet there is a well balanced stereo playing right now for his soul!
Thank you everyone... for your thoughtful and gracious wishes.

Service is on Saturday, the 29th.

@tooblue  Yes, he remarried.

He had feedback from a Seller on August 19th. Our situations can change so suddenly and with such finality.
David, a nice post.  I remember your post after visiting Ezra.  A good memory.  

Let this be a valuable reminder to focus on what is important in our lives. Especially in a time when COVID, politics, and so many strong willed opinions consume our days.
Sad news, indeed.  I hope that he lived a long and comfortable life.  I wish the best to his spouse and and all of his extended family.
Peace be with you, brother!
