[ARETE] To SLA members

[Fred Mason]

Sad news. Dick was such a graceful man with a great sense of humour. I loved it when he had laughing fits reading his translations. I feel that knowing him improved me as a human being.

Stay safe all, and take care,

Fred

✉External message: Use caution.
It saddens me to report that our friend and long time SLA member, Dick McGehee, passed away on Saturday. Dick was known for his love of the games of the southern Americas and responsible for translating and presenting many works from those regions. For the past few years, he diligently indexed the journal, putting decades of work into a searchable database. In addition, he was a benefactor for the Association, making it possible for a variety of young graduate student scholars to attend the conference. His generosity, kindness, and subtle humor knew no bounds.
