John W. Edwards, known to many OS/2 users as a board member of the Warpstock Corporation since 2001 to 2025, passed away in February 14, 2025.
From Lewis Rosenthal, Warpstock Treasurer:
It is with a very heavy heart that I bring the news of the passing of our dear friend and Warpstock President Emeritus, John W Edwards on or about February 14.
Members of the Warpstock Board of Directors have just today received word of this. While we knew that John was not well, none of us thought that his demise was imminent.
John was a close personal friend and mentor to me over the past decades. He will be sorely missed. Above all, he was a good person, and g-d knows, we could do with more good people on this Earth.
As Warpstock Treasurer, I will be making a motion that this year's Warpstock event be dedicated to John for his 25+ years of service to Warpstock, his years of service to VOICE and to the OS/2 community at large. We all owe John a debt for his evangelism, knowledge, experience, and organizational talents which he lent so freely to us.
