[Leish-l] ENC: Leishmaniasis looses one of its icons - Bob Killick-Kendrick

Sat Nov 5 15:58:19 BRST 2011

Dear Dr. Shaw,
Many thanks  for the videos... I want to remember  Prof Bob
Killick-Kendrick  as in these videos!.
I saw him at ISOPS 7 in Turkey. When I arrived,  I looked for him. Nicole
told me he was very sick! However, he joined the symposium and, as always,
he was cheerful and affectionate with everyone.
Shortly before leaving for a field work, about two weeks ago, I learned the
sad news, but I was not able to write anything. Now, I want to express my
sorrow for such an irreparable loss to science,   and for many of us who
were lucky to have him as mentor  at Imperial College.
