I just received sad news that Steve Tabor passed away this morning.  Bob
Cole wrote, "He had been in the hospital for several days with double
pneumonia and developed complications with that. There is no information
at this time on a memorial service; he will be cremated."

Steve was a very colorful character in the beekeeping industry.  I once
had the pleasure of falling asleep during a presentation he gave at an
EAS conference at 7 Springs Resort in Pennsylvania.  It was a beautiful
sunny afternoon in a bee yard in an idyllic location, and I just dozed
off.  When I woke after the lecture I apologized to Steve for having
fallen asleep during his presentation.  He commented in his strong
Southern drawl, "No need to apologize, I wish I'd been the one who took
the nap!"

As I said, Steve was a very colorful character.  I'm saddened by this
news.
