Goodbye, Felipe Gaucho

Felipe GauchoSad news for the Brazilian and International Java community

Yesterday, March 5, 2010, our friend Felipe Gaúcho has passed away due to a severe heart attack. His last role at CEJUG was as a principal advisor, after several years as coordinator.

Felipe was one of the CEJUG’s founders and he has become one of the greatest Java evangelists in Brazil and worldwide. Creator of the Java University Prize (PUJ), Felipe worked hard to motivate Brazilian students to give their very best on their student career.

We are mourning the loss of our JUG Leader Felipe Gaúcho.
