Ted Curson R.I.P.

I received this email this evening :

"I just read that Ted Curson has died on Sunday morning, Nov 4th, 2012 in New Jersey due to a heart attack. His death was reported at least by the Finnish daily newspaper Helsingin Sanomat, largely because he was an annual visitor of the Pori Jazz festival since the 1960's and
a well-known figure in Finland."
