A friend from Raleigh, NC who knew Renaldo Kuhler said he passed away a couple weeks ago and sent me this obituary. He was a scientific illustrator at the NC Museum of Natural Sciences for 30 years, but with another life as a kind of town eccentric who created an imaginary world called Rocaterrania which he kept illustrating through his life.
