I don't know if you all knew about this, but it is a sad day for me. I just found out that Aubrey Pilgrim is gone.
I received messagss from two of Aubrey Pilgrim's nieces in response to a blog post I had witten soon after his diagnosis called, "Aubrey, How We Will Miss You".
From Megan:
"Aubrey was my great uncle. He passed away on his birthday, June 23rd at 11:50 pm. He was a brilliant man whom I always looked up to and I am happy to see others knew what a wonderful person he was. I will miss him, and arguing philosophy with him greatly. Thank you for your kind words about my uncle."
From Pam:
"Thank you for your kind words and thoughts about my beloved uncle Aubrey Pilgrim. He has always been an inspiration my whole life. He craved to learn new things all his life and encourged me and his family members to do the same. His passing leaves a great hole in our lives and hearts. He passed on his birthday June 23, 2008 in Idaho with his granddaughters, brother and two sisters present that were visiting him for his birthday as a surprise. We didn't expect to lose him so soon. True to his nature he left his remains to science so more might be learned. When that is done what is left will be cremated and spread with his wife and children ashes in Idaho. We have lost a great person. Thank you for your kind posting."
