Dear All
Fiona Steele sent us the following sad message earlier today:
"I'm afraid I have some very sad news to pass on. Tony Fielding died early yesterday morning.
As you know he had been ill for some time, although he was recovering and in good spirits when I saw him last month. He was admitted to hospital last week after kidney problems, and died suddenly after returning home.
I will let you know about funeral arrangements later in the week. Once these are known, I'd be grateful if you could pass on to colleagues in the Society (the social statistics section, the Series A editorial board, and RSS staff). We will be putting a piece about Tony on the Centre for Multilevel Modelling website early next week, and I will send you the link."
I will let you know when we know about the funeral arrangements, so that we can discuss how to pass on the condolences of the social statistics section committee. Tony of course was a long-standing member, secretary and chair of the committee.
Best wishes
Jouni
