    Sorry to hear that in a very short span of time another member of the brotherhood died at such a relatively young age. From what I can gather by visiting his website, he apparently had a secret method of rustication, which he took to the grave. Of course, I think we all would rather not mourn his death so much as celebrate his life. And it is in that spirit that I would have entitled his obit piece “Pavel Czech’s Out”.

    Bad news for each pipesmoker here in Czech. His pipes were well known among Czech-pipesmokers, of distinctive design and first-class processed. Big loss for us….
