<DIV>Dear Dr Shaw</DIV>
<DIV>I am saddened to know that Dr Bob an outstanding scientist, is no longer amidst us. I still remember the enthusiasm and vigor with which he participated in WorldLeish4 here in Lucknow.<BR></DIV>
<DIV>For me he was a generous mentor,</DIV>
<DIV>He was full of praise for the Indian kala azar history which we had tried to compile and was instrumental in advising us on the text, as well as writing the foreword. There is a picture of Dr Bob in the WL4 site inaugurating the book. He was encouraging us to extend our writing to regions where similar disease history lay forgotten and was enthusiastically planning the layout. </DIV>
<DIV>My condolences and deepest sympathy to Mirelle.</DIV>
<DIV>Sincerely</DIV>

Leishmaniasis has lost one of its icons and the breadth and depth of Bobīs comments on-line and at meetings based on years of experience is a terrible loss to us all. Bobīs 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.</SPAN></SPAN></DIV>
