Please accept my deepest sympathy. I worked for Mort for about 3 years at Control Data in the early 70's. He was the first executive I had ever worked for. He taught me so much during the time I worked for him, not only little things like when he was dictating a letter and would use a word I didn't recognize - he would stop and not only spell the word but explain what it meant. He taught me respect and forgiveness. He was a wonderful person. May God be with you and your family... Sincerely, Jan (Peterson) Arntzen

My father was a wonderful human being, a highly moral actor, brilliant in things technical and marketing. Along with his remarkable combination of expertise he was a fabulous public speaker. He recognized very early in his life the threats to our very existence that we see unfolding now. He did more than most to attempt to "fix things". The results of the impacts he had on daily life around the world will never be acknowledged and, at the same time, cannot be overemphasized.
We miss you Mort, here's a haiku for you!
