Thanks for passing on that sad news on, Carl. Although I contribute to
the list infrequently, I have followed it for a long time. Your
characterization of Patricia is exactly right. We will indeed miss her.

We were saddened to hear that Patricia Godfrey, a long-time member
of this mailing list, died in December. All of us who knew her will
miss her erudite, gentle, and sometimes gently remonstrating voice.
Her integrity and love of knowledge shone through in everything she
said here. Sincere condolences to her family and friends.
