I'm saddened to report the death of my friend, Ron Soman, whose company was hosting my website, along with many others on the tatting lists (and many other types of websites). My blog is not effected, however (obviously).

I was just notified by my webmistress that "someone has unplugged the servers" and it appears everyone's website hosted by Ron's company is offline now. The situation being worked on, but there is no telling when/IF we will be able to get these websites and all their contents back and intact.

I was also informed that Ron was only 37 years old. I'm so sorry that he is gone, not only for the websites that we enjoy so much, but even more for my personal relationship with him. We chatted often about personal situations and I will miss him.

My deepest heartfelt sympathies to Ron's family and loved ones...

I'm sorry that my father's death has interrupted most of the websites he was hosting. I would try to help with that but to be honest i have no idea what to do I'm just glad your site wasn't effected and thank you for your thoughts.

I am shocked of the news of Ron's passing. I was online today searching for Ron to see if he had a Facebook account. I knew him and Gayle when they lived in Houston and owned the Pinkpig. Does anyone know how I can get in touch with his family OR Gayle to send my condolences??

No, I do not know how to get in touch with anyone involved with PinkPig or SimplySpace.
