[Seattle Go Center] Sad Go Community News

We lost one of our Go Community this past Thurs.  Mike Malveaux passed quietly it appears in his sleep.  Mike was a super nice, mellow guy who volunteered a lot for Go in the Seattle Sound area.  He was our Program Manager for a few years before Kyle and ran many of our tournaments pre-covid.  Mike just recently in APR was helping at a school outreach event and seemed as vibrant as ever.  He was also very involved in the South Sound Go Club and was one of our regulars during COVID in our online meetups Tue evenings, usually hosting so others could play games.

Mike's wife, Helen, has invited anyone who remembers Mike to join the funeral if you like.  It will be at 08 AUG 11:00am at New Covenant Church (2156 M.L.K. Jr Way, Tacoma, WA, 98405).  Because Kyle and I will be going, we may open SGC late that Saturday, but we'll post about that when we know more.

If you have any questions or plan to attend, please let me know.  I'm also open to carpooling.  Helen also asked me if anyone from the Go Community would want to speak at the funeral, so if you think you do, definitely please let me know so that I can let Helen know.

With Much Fond Remembrance,
Bill

[Seattle Go Center] Bill Lin Canadian Pro Visiting SGC AGAIN Fri

Hey, all, sorry for the extra mail.  Bill Lin has such a good time today, he decided to come back to SGC Friday 2-5pm, hoping to meet strong players and play some games.  Some folks are already planning to be there, so I'm not sure how many distinct games will be played or he will do simuls.  Please come if you're interesting, but you might just be watching strong players play.

Cheers,
Bill

This is short notice, so sorry for that.  Friends of Bill wanted to bring him to SGC, and he will be there playing some of our strongest players Thurs, 2-5pm, tomorrow.  We will be open if folks want to come play or watch stronger players.  This came together last minute.

Cheers,
Bill
