R.I.P. John Piscopo

This is deeply saddening, to hear of the loss of another of our own, John Piscopo.
I cannot say that I knew John well, but clearly like many, I was fortunate to have had communication with him some years ago on some research. As has been noted, he was open, friendly and anxious to be helpful. Even after our initial contact, he was thoughtful in continuing the pursuit of the information I needed and followed through in recontacting me with the material.

It seemed in later years that wherever sound research was discussed, his name would appear, and it made me proud to even have had such brief contact with him.

We will mourn his loss, but continue the work he passionately loved, to never stop learning, and to share our gained knowledge openly with each other.

Vaya con Dios John.
