Harvey Altstadter:

Don Lancasters obituary is available on several websites, and I think it is on Wikipedia

Here is one URL, if you are interested in reading it.

http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/gjsentinel/obituary.aspx?pid=159729485

Here is another:

http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/commercialappeal/obituary-preview.aspx?n=don-lancaster&pid=167703074&referrer=1474

This information is not too difficult to find on the Net.

Sometimes for a person (like Lancaster), another person  will respond to correspondence long after the individual

has deceased.  Sometimes it is a member of the family, or in this case, most likely a former associate.

In this age of copyright mania, someone may own all the rights to Lancaster's publications and writings,

and probably may be profiting from them.

Regards,

Roland F. Harriston, P.D.

Hmmm... the What's new section of his website was updated as recently as March 5 of this year.  He has some comments on the new Sainsmart O'scope. Says he has one on order.

Brad:

Don Lancaster passed away on October 24, 2013.
He was 81 years old.

I don't know who was (is) handling his correspondence (@Tanija).

I think some of his publications are still in print.
