[Pasig-discuss] Remembering Lee Dirks

[Arthur Pasquinelli]

I want to just send a quick message to the PASIG list expressing my 
personal sorrow and the sorrow of the entire PASIG steering committee at 
the tragic loss of Lee Dirks of Microsoft Research and his wife;
http://latino.foxnews.com/latino/news/2012/08/29/2-americans-peruvian-die-in-peru-highway-accident/
I hope this message isn't the first time you have heard this sad news.

Lee has been instrumental in helping the PASIG survive and grow and he 
has been one of the leaders in the Library, Repository, and Preservation 
community over the years. We have lost one of Higher Education's best 
friends and he will be sorely missed as a collaborator, adviser, and friend.

We will have a remembrance for Lee at the PASIG Dublin. All our sympathy 
goes to both his family and co-workers at Microsoft Research.

Best Regards,

Art
