Just heard on TVG that Ed Aleksenas (I really butchered the spelling of his name) passed away over the holidays. He was a reseacher for TVG (Pace Ace analysis often used on air) and (I believe) a member of this site. He was 56 years old.

Craig,

Yes, I should have mentioned that in orig. post. I believe Julie Krone gave him that nickname.

It brings me great sadness to report that a close friend of mine passed away over the Christmas holiday. Edward Aleksinas, or "Oatmeal Ed" as he was known to TVG viewers introduced me to pace analysis back in the early 90's and was a dyed in the wool Sartinite as well as a PA member. Without his pace and velocity knowledge I would have never come this far with my own handicapping skills. He was only 64. He will be missed by many.

Guess I should have hedged in reporting his age as 56 (TVG reported it that way). Thanks IF.
