He died of what appears to have been a heart attack while waiting for
the train to go to the airport after BSDcan in Ottawa. I believe those
details
can be shared, but an official obituary will be forthcoming with more
details.
He was in good spirits for the conference, and I'm in shock. I am glad that
I did get to chat with him about all things BSD during the closing social...
But I'm also very sad.

Mike Karels died on Sunday. I don’t have any details other than:

Mike was deeply involved in the Berkeley BSD releases as I recall, after he
inherited the TCP/IP implementation for Unix from Bill Joy (am I
remembering that correctly?).
RIP
