I join in sorrow over Ludo’s departure from this life. While I was not his dissertation student, he always was open and generous in sharing time, knowledge, research findings and methods with me, as with all of the students in our indological program. A teacher and friend, as Patrick aptly remarks.

Dear Friends:

I just received the news from Rosane Rocher, that our teacher and friend, Ludo Rocher, passed away last night peacefully. I am sure we will have a more detailed tribute to him, but he was not just a great scholar but a humble and loving teacher and friend.

With best wishes,

Patrick Olivelle
