It is with great sadness that I learned of the passing of Harold Mori****a on Friday. He was the North American distributor of Stax. Harold was a good man and a good man to deal with. I will miss him.

*Raises his Lambda Pros in salute* Farewell, Mr. Mori****a. Thank you for bringing so many great experiences to our shores!
I'm very sorry to hear this as well. I've known Harold since 1981 and visited and had tea with him at his home in Toronto several times. I have photos of Harold, his lovely wife ( also deceased ), and my ex-wife I took while attending a social function at a CES many years ago. He was a soft-spoken gentleman.

Very sad. I spoke to him a few times last year to get my O2s fixed and he was always helpful if not apologetic for the situation that happened with my O2s.
When you go through life, you meet a few people who are indelible memories.
I only met Mr. Mori****a a couple of times in the course of having my amplifier repaired. We met in a small restaurant where we exchanged 30 minutes of conversation. But you could tell even from that short amount of time he was a very kind and gentle man.
Sorry to learn of his passing. Wish I had gotten to Toronto one more time to see him.
