The Universe has lost a powerful optical force...
He never...ever...shyed away from giving freely from his deep well of optical knowledge.
I am overwhelmed at hearing today of his untimely passing.
Too young. Too nice. Too generous. With a smile that always said "Welcome."
A true and worthy disciple of the Guild of Glass Makers.
A lensman nonpareil.
I, along with many others, are diminished forever.
Rest in peace, Darryl Meister. Prayers to all your friends and family.
We will truly miss you.

A big loss to all of us on OptiBoard. Rest in peace.
An optical king has passed on.
OMG, the world has lost a brilliant mind and a kind soul. The optical world is a better place because of him and his extensive desire to help others learn.
Prayers to his loved ones and to all of us who have lost an optical guru and friend.
RIP
Craig Chasnov and family
