Dear Andre, Anne and Hanne The community of category theorists is grieving with you. We have lost a great member. Myles was one of the category theorists I met for the first time at John and Eva Gray's home in Urbana in November 1968. Myles is the one who walked most of the way home with me past the U Illinois Math Dept in the cold. I even remember that we talked about relative homological algebra. From the start, I was impressed by his gentle and kind manner. Since then we have had many enjoyable times together, in Australia, in Montreal, and at conferences. He remained gentle, kind and positive throughout all the terrible things, explained by Andre and Mike, that he endured. While on sabbatical at the University of Sydney, Myles and Hanne hosted a dinner featuring a whole lamb cooking on a spit. For a long time Myles had wanted to do that. It turned out to take a bit longer to cook than expected, even for Myles, who always liked his meat bloody. In the end it was a big success. We are thankful to Myles for his immense contribution to mathematics through his individual work, his numerous collaborations, and his inspiring conversations. In sympathy, Ross [For admin and other information see: http://www.mta.ca/~cat-dist/ ]
