    Default Sad News

    It saddens me to let you know that Joe Przybyla died about two weeks ago. I heard from his wife Dottie but she did not answer my follow-up questions. Joe was a good friend who participated actively here on BPN for a bit more than a decade. He will be missed.

    with love, artie

    Hi Artie, this is indeed such sad news. He was a real gentleman, always wanted to learn and build on both his photography and PP, but ultimately always had a good word to say on fBPN.

    He and Dottie seem so well suited and on the various emails he was enjoying life and his birding.

    I second Arash's comment, we WILL miss his postings, as he was such a prolific poster in both feedback and threads.

    RIP Joe where ever you are.

    Reading this news saddens me as well. He was always positive receiving critiques, and was an all-around good guy. I will miss his postings and interactions. If ever I make it down to Circle B reserve I will have Joe to thank for introducing me to the place (even if only virtually).

    So sad. Always a kind and positive guy, who showed great enthusiasm and desire to learn and share. He will certainly be missed.

    Oh dear, so sad to hear. I called him the portrait king for his many fine detailed close shots. A gentleman that will be missed.
