Update: 20080607 Letter from Jim Guthrie received via Dennis Knudtson
About one week ago Rachid Usmanov was taking the train from Usinsk to Pechora and he died of a heart attack in Pechora. Very sudden and quick. KAO colleagues will all remember what a great and patient and helpful IT professional he was, he got us through some tough times in those early days. He worked for me at KAO and SeverTEK both and I admired him both as a good kind person and a dedicated and very talented employee.
Yesterday Andrei Zhitlukin died from complications in surgery, I believe he had cancer of the liver. Not all KAO employees would know him as he was a lawyer hired after most of the Canadians were gone. He worked for me in SeverTEK and he attended both the Canadian and Russia reunions in 2005 and 2007 and as everyone remembers, he was the life of the party. He played the guitar, sang all the great Russian songs, and dressed like he was born in High River, Alberta. As you know, I called him Andy Lukin due to this penchant he had for dressing like a cowboy.
I will miss both of these men, they were good friends and great colleagues.
Regards, Jim

Andrei was one of my new Russian friends, gone too soon. I loved his music and his zest for life. I have some great pictures of him, especially from Parade Day at the Calgary Stampede, an event that was close to his soul I think. May he rest in peace

Жаль, всех наших соратников, которые ушли от нас безвременно. Андрей запомнился хорошим нашим парнем, которого не будет хватать нам, когда будем встречаться. Пусть земля ему будет пухом.

Мы приносим соболезнования семье и близким Андрея. Мы с ним только познакомились на KAO 2005 Reunion в Канаде. Какой был парень, ковбой и музыкант! Жалко, что так рано его не стало.

Andrei brought life to our organization and played a very important role in all the success we realized. I am happy to have had the opportunity to work with him and for the support he provided through all difficult times. Pressure came from many different directions, but he was always ready and willing to assist. I have missed working with Andrei already the past few years since leaving SeverTEK, and will now miss him even the more.
