I was saddened to learn of Dr Rubin's passing. He was an exchange professor at the University of Bergen, Norway in '65-66 and a patient advisor on my thesis writing.

Fond memories of a gentleman who shared his works and his love of all things literary with his fans at Senior University for many years. His humor and his dedication to his friends will not be forgotten.
