Yes, thanks for letting us know, Joyce. Terribly sad news. I always think of how freezing Dick and Manel were through the whole Canadian conference, absolutely shivering, but still incredibly polite and kind, insisting they were having a fabulous time. A lovely couple. A generous scholar. Thinking of all the SLA community. Miss you guys. Lots of love and condolences. -Angie

 That saddens me too.  I hope Manel has a good support net.
Thanks for letting us know, Joyce.

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.
