Sad news to report!

It has been reported today (Oct 19) that Peter Smith, the beloved Nikon repairman, from Del Ray Camera in Florida,  passed away a few days ago.

The first report was on Nikoncafe.com and is now confirmed by a Rangefinderforum.com member who made a phone call to Del Ray Camera.

Just received from a friend of Pete's:

"Pete died 2 days ago. There has been no obituary in the local paper yet, but memorial plans are pending. I will be in contact with his family soon."
