I am so sorry to hear Johannes's demise. He was a very close friend. We communicated frequently. He visited us in Michigan and I visited him in Lausanne. I was hoping to see him in Oxford next month. Feel very sad. Goodbye dear friend. Rest in peace.

Dear friends and colleagues,
I have just received the news that Johannes Bronkhorst left this world
today at noon in a controlled manner, as was his custom, together with his
beloved wife Joy Manné.
He sent the last batch of his papers just a few days ago. He will be
remembered as an innovative and inspired scientist, a cheerful person and
a true and dear friend.
Sadly.
Harry Falk
