Dear Michael and List,

I am sorry to hear of the loss of your dear friend who was also a great Indo-Iranist.  I have learned so much from her!

I mourn with you,

George Thompson

I am aggrieved to bring sad news: Today my old friend Johanna Narten has passed away. 

Among Indologists, Iranists and Indo-Europeanists, she is well remembered for her work on the Indo-European and Skt. verbal system, for example the s-Aorist; on Zoroaster’s Yasna Haptanhaiti, and the Amesha Spentas in the Avesta.

More news to follow.
