Death

Vint Cerf posted a message, seemingly from Len Kleinrock, that Dr Roberts passed away on Wednesday 26 Dec 2018: https://twitter.com/vgcerf/status/1078789166576689155 I've not yet found any death notice, obituary nor memoria. Dr Robert's website has no notice. Anyone have good data? jzp (talk) 01:12, 29 December 2018 (UTC)

Computer History Museum http://www.computerhistory.org echos that fact, but has no source for the information. Jonathanleblang (talk) 15:27, 29 December 2018 (UTC)

Om Malik has a mention, but only cites Vint's tweet: https://om.co/2018/12/28/dr-larry-roberts-internet-pioneer-is-dead/ jzp (talk) 16:51, 29 December 2018 (UTC)
