I am sorry. I just learned of Rafe's passing. I went to high school with him, and was so glad he had gone into environmental research. He was always so kind and just an overall great human. I am deeply sorry for your loss.

Been almost a year and the deep sense of loss is still there yet tempered by the wonderful living legacy of his work and global collaborations.

Rafe & I played Yale Youth Hockey together over thirty years ago in New Haven. Great guy. Very sad news.
My condolences to all who loved him & whom he loved.

I always learned when I visited with Rafe which last occurred on May 26 when I was blessed to have a working lunch with him. That visit will leave an indelible imprint. Bob Lusch (Tucson)

Rafe was such an amazing person. My heart goes out to his family .

I was lucky to know Rafe a long time ago when we were both teenagers. In his honor, I will try especially hard to teach my daughter about the natural world and both the science and art we can find in it.

I knew Rafe briefly and remember him warmly, my deepest condolences to those he loved.

Grief can be hard may your cherished memories help you to cope, and may the love of family and friend and prayers comfort you always
