[INDOLOGY] John Huntington (April 6, 1937 - November 28, 2021)

[Agnes Korn]

I am very sorry to hear about the loss of John Huntington, whom I've 
never met personally, but "seen" on mailing lists for quite some time. 
He always was very kind and generous in sharing his knowledge and data.

Best,
Agnes
