PostgreSQL maintainer Simon Riggs has died in a small airplane crash, on Tuesday.
For those who didn't know Simon, he's responsible for PostgreSQL Binary Replication and many big data features. He and I worked together at Greenplum 2006-2008. Postgres would not be the world-leading DB it is today if it weren't for him.

That box story right below the original message is hilarious! 😂 It’s always good to bring up happy memories after someone passed away. Good way to mourn, IMO.
