Bad news and the future

This is Bob’s son Jason. He passed away in his sleep early in the morning of 6/13/23. Corsham Tech will not be continuing, but we plan to reach out to some people to sort outstanding orders and unresolved business.

He requested that we don’t hold a formal funeral service for him, but we will be hosting a celebration of life event in the near future somewhere near his home town in South Jersey. We will post updates here, and we have set up a memorial site where contributions to his memory are welcome:

Thank you all for being customers and fellow enthusiasts; this business and his passion for his work were a huge part of who he was, and it means a lot to me and my family that you helped support Corsham Tech.

Stuck in the hospital again!

I went to see my oncologist on 2/23 and he noted a fever…. it’s now four days later but no indication as to when I might get out.

Before this, I had shipped some orders and had all the others ready to mail.

Again, sorry for the delays in shipping orders but once I’m home they can be sent quickly.

Finally home

It was a 13 day stay at the hospital but they diagnosed the terrible joint pain and also did another long round of chemo to fight the cancer.  Joints are feeling better but a physical therapist will start coming to the house to get everything working again.  Going into the workshop to process orders is still not possible.

Corsham Tech reserved a table at Vintage Computing Festival East in April but there is no way I can set up an exhibit even with my wife and son helping (our daughter is in college about 12 hours away so she can’t help).
