 David Pines was one of the early founder and supporters of SFI.  His work is 
nicely described here:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Pines 
<https://www.cloudhq.io/mail_track/link/37e70dfcf64fb33532979da52ce22f1f?uid=226430&url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FDavid_Pines>
  

 

And he and his late wife Suzie, a dedicated social worker, were wonderful, fun 
people who gave time and energy to the community.

 

Tom

Tom, 

 

Perhaps to my shame, I did not know David Pines.  Please, tom, could you say a 
few words to let me know why I should have?  

 

Thank you,

 Perhaps some of the FRIAM gang knew David.  A wonderful friend, and we are 
sorry for his loss.  And yes, "Think like scientists!"

Dear Friends-

       We are writing to tell you that David Pines died late yesterday 
afternoon in his new home in Urbana with Jonathan by his side and after 
Catherine just spent several days with him. He was comfortable, peaceful, and a 
pleasure to care for. He fought his illness with the determination and strength 
that defined him, but just over a month before his 94th birthday he finally 
relaxed. As you well know, David lived a wonderful life and had a great passion 
for work, friends, and family.  David nurtured so many rich personal and 
professional relationships and he thought, collaborated, taught, travelled, 
learned, dined, drank, and loved art and music with great pleasure. We look 
forward to celebrating David’s happy life and will let you know as our planning 
“emerges."  In the meantime, David would like everyone to continue to think 
like scientists!

 

Love,

Catherine and Jonathan
