This morning I received the shocking news that David Boschmans, a fantastic colleague and friend, has passed away last night. David and I got to know each other in the Belgian developer community about 5 years ago. Three years ago he joined Microsoft as the Developer Evangelist where we worked very closely together. During that time I got to know David as a smart and great person. The past weeks, he was recovering from health issues; everything seemed to go well (given the circumstances). Till last night.

My thoughts go out to his wife, his daughter and family.

David, we miss you and will never forget you. Rest in peace...

Update: You can write a message to David and his family at http://david.vsdotnet.be. If you have photo's with David, it would be nice if you could add them to the David Boschmans group at Flickr. This group will be a center location with several different memories.
