[ARETE] To SLA members

[richard crepeau]

Sad news in this difficult time. Dick McGehee was one of those interesting people that makes SLA a very special place.
He will be missed. No conference will be the same without him.

Truly grievous news. I learned so much from Dick and so admired his love for Manel. Janet and I are heart scalded by the news.

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.
