This is extremely sad news. He has made enormous contributions to our field and his figure will be greatly missed. I have had limited interactions with him but, based on the interactions I had the privilege to have, I also concur with Mauro Cavalcanti that he had a nice sense of humor.
My most heartfelt condolences to his family, his friends, and all our field.
Carmelo

      Dear subscribers to morphmet,

      With the deepest grief we must inform you of the sudden
      death on June 13 of Prof. Dennis E. Slice,
      holder of the fourth Rohlf Award for Excellence in Morphometrics
      and tireless founder and moderator of this newsgroup,
      who suffered a heart attack in his home town of
      Tallahassee, Florida. Morphometrics will not be the same
      without him.
