RIP

RIP to Dr. Sodek who passed away due to a sudden heart attack.

The only contact I had with him was the thesis presentation. He was one of the three judges on my panel and gave me a hard time during question session. Gentle by manner, scholarly and thorough by nature, that's my little left over impression of him. His face was a blur in my memory.

His family wasn't by his side when his heart failed. That's the hardest part for me as an outsider to take in.

Though I have other things to blabber on, I shall close it here just to dedicate this entry to a professor I happened to know.
