Delphi is gone

With a very heavy heart, I share with you that our beloved cat of 14 years, Delphi, has passed away this morning.  Delphi was a gift from my dear friend Steve Teixeira, that my wife and I received upon our marriage and soon after the release of Borland Delphi 2.0.  Delphi was a wonderful kitten, extremely social and always wonderful with my kids.  He will be missed greatly around our house.  Delphi was a famous cat as he made it into several of the technical articles that I wrote worldwide during the last decade and also made it into 2 Delphi books as honorary mention.

I will miss him greatly, Bye Delphi!

Lino --

I'm very sorry for your loss. Our pets have always been full-fledged members of the family, so I know how tough it is.

My best to you and yours.

What are you talking about?
How can a cat make into technical articles?

Hi Lino,

It breaks my heart to hear this. We have lost a lot of pets over the years, and it never gets easier.

Thanks guys,

I appreciate all your kind words.
I know Nick and Anders met Delphi several times and he was a famous cat for all of us on the Delphi team at some point.
Again, thanks for your kind words and God bless
