+=head1 Obituary
+
+Brian McCauley died on May 8, 2015. He was a frequent poster to Usenet, Perl
+Monks, and other Perl forums, and made several CPAN contributions under the
+nick NOBULL, including to the Perl FAQ. He attended almost every
+YAPC::Europe, and indeed, helped organise YAPC::Europe 2006 and the QA
+Hackathon 2009. His wit and his delight in intricate systems were
+particularly apparent in his love of board games; many Perl mongers will
+have fond memories of playing Fluxx and other games with Brian. He will be
+missed.
