It is with great sadness and a heavy heart to share the news that Matt Slay has passed away from COVID-19 earlier today.
You may recognize Matt for his many contributions to the Fox Community on VFPX with the next generation of GoFish,
DynamicForms, assisting Jim Nelson and Doug Hennig with the development and testing of Thor, inspiring the Go To
Definition feature in Thor, and the VFP language template for VS Code, just to name a few of his contributions. Matt
also inspired other developers to create things for our community when he was not tackling them himself. He was very
good at twisting arms of fellow Visual FoxPro developers to get other things contributed.
Matt leaves behind his wife Sharon and two teenage sons. This is an absolute gut punch and is a terrible way to
extinguish a shining star in our community.

That is sad to hear. He will be missed.
May his family be cared for and find blessings and comfort in this time.

What a terrible shock.
I have had numerous interactions in the past with him regarding bug fixing etc and he was always most amenable and helpful. He will be sadly missed personally as well as from a technical point of view.
Thoughts from all the dwindling but passionate VFPer's here in the UK go to his friends and family.

That's truly sad news and what a great loss that is. I was looking forward to meeting him at Virtual Fox Fest. Rest in peace.
