Galeoptix (Rein) Has Passed Away

Yesterday I read on another forum that one of our members,Galeoptix
passed away recently.
Rein participated and shared his knowledge on a number of forums.
Australian,Austrian, Argentinian, Swiss, German etc etc.
He was into all aspects of stamp production but Rein's specialty
was stamp papers and watermarks.
I learned a lot from him, even though I didn't always understand
some of his finer details.
