It is with a heavy heart that I have to report that Udo Rumpf passed
away last night. He had been battling cancer for the last few years
and fought hard to beat it. Unfortunately, various treatments were not
successful. I will let you know about funeral arrangements in the next
day or so.

A wonderful gentleman has left us.


I had the pleasure of knowing Udo from the Seniors and other contests
we shared. Always a gentleman, he always had that spark in his eyes
that made talking with him a pleasure. Udo's passing is a loss for
soaring, on both sides of the border.
