Frank Roderus, R. I. P.

It's been announced on the Western Fictioneers list that Frank Roderus has died.  I first became acquainted with his work back in the middle 1980s, starting with his series about a man named Heller, a sort of Travis McGee type.  There were, I believe, six books in the series.  Here's my review of one of them, done for an FFB feature a couple of years ago.  His western novels are all very good, and I recommend them.
