It is with a very heavy heart that I have to communicate the sad news of the passing of Neal "AskBud" Harbison, Jr. Bud had suffered a stroke near the end of 2012 and after battling health issues for several months, died April 5th, 2013.
For those of you newcomers, that might not know AskBud, he has been an integral part of the CarveWright community, since 2008. Many of us on here have considered him part of our family for years.
As a retired high school woodworking & computer teacher, Neal had the perfect background for the CarveWright and continued teaching many CW customers through the years. See his many lessons on both computers & the CW on his website: http://www2.wcoil.com/~nharbison/ I'm not sure how long it will remain up.
There was no memorial service for Neal. His body was donated to the Wright State University School of Medicine.
A Senior Member of the forum, Bud was always available to lend a hand to help a fellow Carvoholic on the forum or in person. He was also very generous to others. He assisted several blind members with their design work and often called LHR to make anonymous purchases for others.
God bless you, Bud.
