Here is a bit of an on-line eulogy written by Nathaniel Borenstein about Kristi's dad...
An Underappreciated Email Pioneer: Einar Stefferud, 1930-2011
"Not that many people will recognize the name of Einar Stefferud, but he was one of the great unsung pioneers of the Internet. .. I had the privilege of working with him closely in the later stages of his career, and came to consider him first my mentor, then my partner, and then my friend...
Stef, as everyone called him, was a force behind the scenes of countless Internet innovations, but was rarely recognized as an individual innovator...
Einar Stefferud was a brilliant, insightful, and warm human being ...deserves to be remembered as one of the fathers of the Internet, and perhaps its leading contrarian thinker. And he will be greatly missed."
