Dear category theorists, In case you wish to express your condolences to Hanne Tierney, Myles's first wife, her email address:: [hannetw@gmail.com] Hanne and Myles had two children: Myles Junior and Loren. Myles Junior was killed in 1999 at the age of 34 while covering the civil war as a journalist in Sierra Leones. Loren was a medical doctor and she died from breast cancer at the age of 42, leaving three children, James, Cooper and Anna and her husband James M. Mumford. Myles survived a terrible rock climbing accident in 1980 in the Shawangunk Mountains in Upstate New York. Myles and Hanne stayed close until the end, with Hanne and their grand-children visiting Myles often. Best, André ________________________________________ From: Joyal, André [joyal.andre@uqam.ca] Sent: Thursday, October 05, 2017 2:09 PM To: categories@mta.ca Subject: categories: Myles Tierney Dear collegues, A very sad news: my friend and collaborator Myles Tierney passed away this morning at home in New Jersey after a long illness.
