Steve Haynes has passed

[Richard M Roberts]

Steve Haynes, one of the founders and the President of Cinevent has passed away today.

Steve was also the person who laid out and put together the Slapsticon program books.

He was a good friend, a truly kind gentleman, and for 47 years put on the best and most easygoing of all the Cinephile Conventions. He will be missed.

Our hearts and prayers go out to the Haynes Family and the Cinevent Community on this very sad day.

I was just on the Cinevent web page last night and a note informed us that he was not doing well.

He did a great job with those program books. For many they have become collector items.

Very saddened to hear this. Steve was indeed among the very best. My prayers and condolences go out to him and his family.

My condolences to his family and all who loved him. Steve was a genuine nice guy whose generosity benefitted everyone who loves classic film.
