Hilliard Moffett McLamore,
72, died
on June 14, 2008 at 6:30 p.m., at his home in Vienna,
Virginia. As one of the
first computer programmers, Mac started working for IBM in 1959 in
Kingston, NY and he was quickly promoted and transferred to the
Washington D.C. area, where he met his future wife, Gudrun Larsen of
Denmark. In 1967, Mac moved overseas to work for Investors Overseas
Services (IOS), and later, World Health Organization (WHO) in Geneva,
Switzerland. In 1974, he moved back to the Washington DC area for good,
and worked as a database administrator for Boeing Computer Services
(BCS). Throughout his career, Mac kept time with the rapid-fire changes
in computing, and upon retirement, he devoted himself to The QBasic
Forum. No matter how much he knew, he was always willing and able to
learn more.
