[meteorite-list] In memoriam Walter Zeitschel

[Martin Altmann]

Last night Walter Zeitschel has left us.

Walter was one of the most outstanding meteorite personalities of our times
and one of, if not the greatest collector of the 20th century.

Walter's meteorite specimens were for so many for us the doorstep to our
lifelong fascination for those irons and rocks from space.
Countless collectors he led to our hobby, long ago before meteorite
collecting was as popular as today; till today.

Our thoughts now are with his wife Nikki and his family.
