Re: Mr. Rao passed away @8.30 pm on 4/May/2025
My condolences to all his family and friends, and to the entire xbase forum and community.
A great person, whom I have the honor of having met and shared his vast knowledge and simple vision of programming.
He leaves an irreplaceable void in our entire community.
His legacy will remain as an example and guide of a great teacher.
he sadness he leaves in my heart will be difficult to overcome.
Rest in peace.

In Memory of Mr. Rao

We have not only lost an exceptionally pleasant person and a friend, but also a brilliant mind who played a key role in shaping our community.
Mr. Rao’s dedication, his clear thinking, and his tireless helpfulness have left a lasting mark on this forum. His absence will be deeply felt – in the code, in our exchanges, and in the spirit of our shared work.
As we mourn his loss, we also want to honor his legacy.
Now more than ever, it is up to all of us to carry on what he helped build. Let us keep his spirit alive – through mutual support, knowledge sharing, and the contributions of each individual, just as he always exemplified.
May his memory give us strength.
Rest in peace, Mr. Rao – we will continue. Your voice, your advice, and your quiet strength will be deeply missed. You remain in my heart, my friend.
A hug,
Otto

There are no words I can add to those already shared. Mr. Rao has been an asset to this community in so many ways, and he will be missed.
Although I share my condolences with his family, I also am saddened that Antonio has lost a close friend and collaborator.
May we all seek to be as generous in our serving others as Mr. Rao shared with us.

Re: Mr. Rao passed away @8.30 pm on 4/May/2025
Our friend Maurizio has proposed me to organize a fund raising for Mr. Rao's wife to help her.
What do you think about it ? Would you be willing to help ?
I have asked his wife for her bank account number. I will post it here and you may feel free to help her. Remitly is the cheapest way to send her some money: https://www.remitly.com/
thank you
