I remember Alfred when he joined us in Buffalo when he was in his early 50s. I was the Canadian graduate student that worked with Ken and Carol Collins at the time. I was fascinated by his sharp mind, great sense of humor and sense of adventure. I am so sorry he passed and my condolences to all. He will be missed.
