Dear Dale. I am so sorry and so sad to hear about the passing of your dear and my dear Christine, always so kind and so generous with her smiles and words in New York, Dartmouth or Rabat.

I am deeply saddened to hear of her passing. May she rest in peace, and may her bereaved family find comfort. Her visit to Japan left a strong impression and warm memories for us, Japanese anthropologists.
