Dear Dr.J.Shaw,

The date 2011/10/22 was also sadly day for all us for missing the Prof.Dr.R. Killick-Kendrick.  I express my deepest condolences to Merrielle. I was read the Bobs publications since 1985 which always were helpful for me. I had a great opportunity to meet him in close during ISOPS7 held in Turkey this year. It is very sad to think that I will not see him again in future meetings. I don't forget him and his kind virtue to the people. I prepared a memorial movie for the Bob and I dedicated this clip to Merrielle, his family, his friends, his colleagues and his students at all across the world.

Please see the Bob's memorial movie at following link in my facebook:

Best regards

Leishmaniasis has lost one of its icons and the breadth and depth of Bob´s comments on-line and at meetings based on years of experience is a terrible loss to us all. Bob´s career spanned many areas of parasitology. He worked on trypanosomiasis in Nigeria with David Godfrey and on returning to England dedicated many years to malaria, in particular rodent malaria. He travelled extensively on field projects all over the world and together with Prof Rioux was seminal in understanding the ecology of leishmaniasis in the Southern France where lived.
