RIP oregonpapa


Today, oregonpapa (Frank) passed away. He will be greatly missed by many of us on Audiogon. I got to know him about a year ago personally, having had many phone calls with him over that time. He was a delightfully kind man, who freely shared his wisdom with others. Bedsides high end audio, , Frank was very knowlegable about world history and politics. Good bye my friend. Jeff

Opened a bottle of Pernoud-Verglesses Clos Berthet Premir Cru, the 2014, with the Righteous Brothers. Now my first bottle of Angel's Envy Finished Rye, and here's to you, Frank, hope you enjoy the Vikki Carr, I know you do. Had it set aside for something special, and Angel's Envy, almost too perfect. RIP buddy, RIP.

😔 ...y'know...we ought to have brought all this up when O.P. was still with us.....

RIP, Frank. Nirvana attained....fared thee well.

learned so much from o-papa, especially about analog and cartridges, even 20 +years into the hobby myself

always generous, gentlemanly, self effacing, unfailingly struck the right notes with his comments - we will miss you

rest in peace, am sure the music is joyous and beautiful where you are now 😇
