I'll just copy and paste my blitzbasic.com comment for this awesome fellow...

He was a great guy, too, going by the few video interviews out there -- this one from last year shows his joy at how awesome the Amiga was, with the first one off the production line alongside him (which he owned) running the original Boing! demo:

Was later heavily involved in the Atari Lynx and the 3DO!

Here he is very recently at Amiga 30 getting a little overwhelmed -- seemed like a really sweet guy, not a description I've ever applied to anyone ever!
