We have lost an esteemed scholar, whose passion, smile, and contagious sense of humor will be missed by us his friends and colleagues. What a pleasure it was to have conversations with him about the comedia and baseball. Those conversations will continue to live in my memory. My condolences to his family. Bob Fiore Robert L.
