Dear Friends
I am afraid that I do not have the details we would perhaps like to know, such as the exact date, but the bare news is that at the age of 89, David Seyfort Ruegg has passed away in London. The immediate cause was Covid.
I hope and expect that those with more detailed information will more fully inform us in the coming days. I know nothing of any possible funeral or memorial arrangements.
In sadness,
Jonathan
