Dear remaining Floyds: Mickey & I are very saddened by losing John, but in a way relieved in knowing that he is no longer suffering. He was my dear friend, my mentor and my guide into scientific research. Mickey & I are in Istanbul until October 26; we will knock on Esther's door upon our return. We are with you in our thoughts. Love.

Love, Marilyn & Don Robbins

I was saddened to hear of Dr.Floyd's passing. I had the honor of working with him in the DCU from 1981-1988. His family and friends are in my thoughts and prayers.
