RIP Ray Jimenez ? WHOA?
Hey did y'all hear? RAY JIMENEZ has passed? I always kept getting emails from his site: https://www.vignetteslearning.com/ .
Theres: https://trainingmag.com/in-memoriam-ld-legend-ray-jimenez/
and oddly, other than: https://www.forevermissed.com/ray-jimenez/about
Is he not as well known as I thought he was?
David Kelly wrote a nice article remembering Ray: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/saying-goodbye-thank-you-ray-jimenez-david-kelly-r2jpe/
I saw a few familiar names who attended Ray's memorial service live too. The recording of that is available if you missed it .https://www.viewlogies.net/mtn-view/0AHOy2Ln-?pin=286550&_id=1
I've definitely seen other discussions about Ray on LinkedIn and in other communities, but perhaps he isn't as well-known in this community. It's such a loss-he was clearly still excited about learning and exploring the possibilities of AI. He was still writing and doing webinars right before he passed. He was so generous in sharing with others, and I know plenty of folks (including me!) will miss him.
That is sad news. I remember Ray during the original Storyline beta, we had some fun. Thanks for posting.
Ray was a great guy. I enjoyed the many conversations I had with him. He was also one of the main presenters we had at our first Articulate Live event years ago.
I assume people newer to the industry didn't know him as well, but as e-learning as starting to take off in 2008+ he was very active and offered a very pragmatic approach to course design.
