Read MoreI'm looking into possible family relations, and I have been talking to Steffen - one of Anders' sons - on and off for several years. We never found out if we were truely related, but from what I read here he sounded like a cheerful person - someone I would be proud to be related to, and I'm so sorry to hear of his passing.
My most sincere condolences to his family and friends.

Of all his accomplishments, his 4 fine sons top the list. They are his greatest legacy.

Anders
was my friend for 45 years. He was a man of many moods, but when he was
at his best he was the merriest and most charming companion possible. He
encouraged laughter, song, and serious scholarly research in more or
less equal proportions. He made important contributions to knowledge in
Texas botany and Texas history. I wll drink a toast to his memory in "the Pope's brandy"
and I ask his friends to do the same.
