Chris Sommovigo has passed away

I just read that Chris passed away on 8/16. It was posted in reference to a new audio show start-up on PTA. I bought various cables from Black Cat Cables/Chris for many years and always received a hand-written note, prompt service, and a great set of cables. 

There is a GoFundMe site as the family is left without needed funds for a proper burial.

I read about Chris passing earlier this week. God speed and prayers for his family.

He was only 55. Apparently a heart attack. It is also evident that those who had the fortune of meeting him all say he was incredibly intelligent and kind.

That is sad news indeed. 55 is way to young an age to go.
