I add my condolences and sorrow about the passing of Ranjan. Born
in in 1950: that's too early to die.
We were in email contact yesterday. One of my postdocs is visiting him now.
Ranjan wrote to me with a selfie taken by Ranjan -- who looked fit and
healthy, I replied, but the reply to my email came from my postdoctoral
student. Google had no news. Twitter was filled with tweets about the
passing. Ken's note was the first to give the reason.
He was a warm and compassionate person and a great educator. Thousands of
students will mourn. I was pleased to be able to call him my friend.
