Hello Joseph,

I would like to share some sad news with the FreeBSD community, my brilliant but humble brother, Dr Bruce David Evans of Sydney Australia, passed away last week on the 18th December 2019 aged 68 years.

From what I understand Bruce made important contributions to the computing world; he was the author of Minix 386 patches and served on the FreeBSD core team from its inception, continuing to contribute to the project for the duration of his life. He studied at Macquarie University in Sydney and at The University of Pennsylvania.

Bruce did not marry or have children instead pursuing his interests and dedicating his life to the computing world. He also had a passion for online bridge, science fiction, maths and physics. His philosophy in life and work was to keep things as simple as possible. His death was sudden, therefore, he leaves behind a mess of books and computers which may contain items of interest.

I would be grateful if you could share the news of Bruce’s passing with the FreeBSD community and would be more than happy to be contacted by anyone who had an interest or connection with him.

Yours Truly,
Julie Saravanos
