Oh my!
This is truly shocking and quite untimely (from a selfish and human point of
view). We have indeed lost a truly humble, dedicated and distinguished
academician and civil servant.
May God rest his soul in eternal peace.
walu.
nb: someone should keep us posted on funeral arrangements, church service, etc.
