    Frank,

    I don't remember meeting Craig, but it is always sad when one of our dwindling numbers passes.  I haven't been able to find his obituary.  How old was he?  Apparently his father died in 2004.

    I was informed via email from Herbert Prinz that Craig B. Waff died recently. Some NavList members had the opportunity to meet Craig Waff at the first Navigation Weekend at Mystic Seaport back in 2006. He suffered a massive heart attack at the Huntington Library while preparing notes for a symposium on the Transit of Venus at Mount Wilson Observatory in California. Waff was a professional historian of science with a lifelong interest in the history of astronomy and celestial navigation.
