Brother HL1435
May 29, 2004 to November 1, 2006
Brother HL1435, died yesterday after a brief but terminal illness. He was installed in August of 2006 after two and a half months in the box, waiting for his dad, HL1230, to retire. He has always been prompt and reliable in delivering, in his 29 months with us, thousands of crisp physician letters and hopeful manuscript pages. He was especially appreciated for his generous paper tray and paper jam-free feed apparatus. In the end, though, this is what seemed to have done him in (maybe if we’d been more appreciative, told him how much we loved him ... sniff!).
We first realized he was ill on Sunday, when he stopped printing after completing only three pages of a many-page job. In the last few days he has been sounding more and more laryngitic, though still able to print one page at a time. Yesterday he quit entirely.
Brother was predeceased by his grandparents Okidata and Fujitsu and his Brother parents. He is survived by ECI the CPU, Spectrum the monitor, the Microsoft siblings Mouse and Keyboard, and the Labec speaker twins Left and Right.
Brother will be greatly missed and hard to replace. In lieu of flowers, please send money. (Oops ... kidding!)
