Dear Fellow Meteor Observers,

I am forwarding this message on behalf of Qinpo Zheng. (RL)
 
I have a very sad news that Zeng Wei Zhou (Born on November 9, 1988, died at home 2:00am on May 11 2015. He loved astronomy since he was a 
child. He specialized in visual meteor observations, satellite observations and 
forecasts of asteroid occultations. Before his death, he also built a small 
remote control observatory at home. He provided meteor observers with a lot of 
help and has been recognized by everyone in China for his contributions.So all 
of China's astronomy enthusiasts were sadden of the news of his death. Chinese 
astronomy researcher Quanzhi Ye, has submitted an asteroid naming proposal, 
hoping to commemorate him for his contribution to Chinese astronomy. I think we 
should all remember his contribution. 
 
Best regards, 
Qinpo Zheng
