Dear colleagues

AfNOG Secretariat is  deeply saddened by the news of the passing of Alan 
Barrett.

Alan had been part of AfNOG from the very beginning and his Company - 
CEQURUX then was the Local Host for the

very first AfNOG Workshop and Meeting in Cape Town, South Africa in May 
2000.  He was also the Lead Engineer

and Instructor for the AfNOG Scalable Network Infrastructure Workshop 
for many years.

He was awarded the 2013 Network Information & Infrastructure (NII) 
Service Award for his commitment to capacity

building and Internet development in Africa.

Alan was a good Engineer who worked quietly behind the scenes. He paid 
his dues to the Africa Internet Ecosystem

and will be sorely missed.

The AfNOG community express our deepest condolences to his family and 
loved ones during this difficult period.

May his soul rest in perfect peace.
