Guy H. Lillian III (1949-2025)
I was shocked today to learn of the passing of Guy Lillian, a well known and respected zine editor. Guy always had nice things to say 
about MonSFFA’s zine, WARP. I had the pleasure of meeting him at World Cons, and we often corresponded. I submitted an article to an issue of Challenger, which he published to my great delight.
Guy’s Zine Challenger was nominated 12 times for the Hugo and he was twice nominated for best fan writer, but he never took home the rocket. It would be a wonderful gesture for the next world con to award a special trophy posthumously.
