I'm very sad to hear of this. Al Kaplan was largely responsible for my love and passion in rangefinders. Here's wishing you plenty of Tri-X where ever you are, Al.
Al Kaplan has passed away :(

Al will be missed for many reasons, by people in many different places. I am posting this from upstate NY. A moment of silence for Al, and sincere condolences to his family and friends.

I always like his friendly comments and his deep know-how.
The RF world is poorer without him.
May he rest in peace.

I am shocked and saddened to learn of Al's passing.
With a heavy heart I will toast his life and memory now.
All my warm wishes to his family.
His blog brought many memories of my life here in South Florida as a much younger man. He will be missed as well as his blog.
He will live on here at RFF and in my heart.
God speed.

What tragic news! Al was a worthy contributor to the RFf - always good for a laugh, but also for a wealth of information.
Our heartfelt condoleances goes out to his family and friends. He will be missed.
I also suspect that Al has already organized a small group around him - ashtray close by and a drink in hand - and is entertaining everybody in his inimitable way.
Al, Rest in Peace - though not too much of the latter as it would not be you!
