The insular world has lost one of its famous economist. The man is gone but his work will continue to inspire future generations. Bye Jerry. My sincere condolences to the family.

Dear Birdie and Family,
Please know that I send my prayers and thoughts for you and your family. Truly, Doc was my favorite professor at SMC. His love of educating was clear and it was a gift to be his student.

I want to extend my sincere condolences both to Professor McElroy's colleagues at Saint Mary's College and his immediate family. I was shocked to recently discover that he had passed. Although we did not meet personally, we communicated via email. For some time I have been reading his work on visitor harassment. So, when I was about to embark on my own enquiry on the topic, I requested his participation in an expert panel. He responded and declined my request. But, what struck me about his...
