Must have missed this in the news, http://www.latimes.com/news/obituaries/la-me-sam-maloof23-2009may23,0,3907018.story (http://www.latimes.com/news/obituaries/la-me-sam-maloof23-2009may23%2C0%2C3907018.story)

Sam was a neat old guy. We did all the interior finish carpentry work and siding at the Museum on his property. Very cool place if you ever want to go check it out. The bot made quick work of all the puzzle joints in the door and window casing. Fun project for a fun and happy customer.

C-ya Sam!

I missed this.
Looks like he died in May.
I visited him at his shop a few years ago, got to talk with him a bit, got an autograph.
Truly a legend in his own time, 93 is a pretty full life.
