I was deeply saddened to hear of the untimely loss of Mr. Pavicic. While I never knew him personally, his son-in-law, Thomas Andersen, an acquaintance of mine from Florida Atlantic University, always spoke of him with great admiration and the utmost respect. My heartfelt sympathies are extended to the family and friends of this wonderful man. Please know you are all in my thoughts and prayers.
