I'm sorry. Was he/she young? Not that it really matters much, death is death.

He was in his 50's and in tip top shape...it was a very sudden thing...he just returned from his 20th trip to Rwanda (he helped start a journalism school there) and he had gotten a shot while there because of back pain....and he apparently contracted something from that....when he went into the hospital (the same night he got back to the states) they said he had a massive infection that they could do nothing about, he finally died of respiratory failure....very bizarre and shocking.

I just got a wonderful e-mail from his girlfriend, who I e-mailed earlier today, I feel so bad for her....but yeah...it's a weird freak thing...but it's also one of those things that makes you look around and know that life should not be taken for granted

My condolences on the loss of your favorite professor, Deanna... he sounds like he was a good man.
