Notes from macOS Intermediate SIG April, 2026
Stephen provided further ‘things you should know’.
AUSOM members who knew Monty Maizels will be saddened to learn of his passing a few months before his 103rd birthday.
Monty’s son, John sent me this link that provides an insight into Monty’s many years of radio, words and music. I shall continue to add pieces about Monty the information AUSOM has available at The Full Monty.
Tributes will be published in the next edition of AUSOM News and I invite anyone who knew Monty or enjoyed his music/writing to provide two or three sentences if they would like to do so.
Please send by email to editor@ausom.net.au in the next few days if possible.
