This info. for users of ULTRA UTILITIES was printed in the 
April '87 newsletter of THE PUBLIC (software) LIBRARY:

"We were recently informed by Ron White of San Antonio that the 
author of "Ultra Utilities" died some time ago.  Reportedly, he did
not leave usable source code, so his business associates are no 
longer able to support the program."
