Subject: Remembering Peter Banks
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed
To readers of Liblicense-l: Your moderator is sad to report
that
we have had to remove the name of our colleague Peter Banks
from
our subscription list for the saddest of reasons: he passed
away
on Saturday of cancer at age 52. Long-time publisher at the
American Diabetes Association (ADA) and more recently a
publishing consultant, he was one who cared deeply about the
future of scholarly publishing and wrote thoughtfully and
clearly, on this list as well in many other venues, about
the
issues that concern many of us. He was a key advocate for
information and support, and he worked unstintingly with
many
organizations, individuals, and publishers, to create
resources
and pathways to usable, high-quality information for
patients,
their family/friends, and caregivers.
His wife, Lucy, has said we might send all 3,000+ readers
this
message and she would like to share with us that he passed
quickly and peacefully - that he greatly enjoyed and valued
being
part of the listserv community.
Here are the details for services and donations for Peter:
There will be a gathering -- everyone is welcome -- from 7-9
p.m.
on Tuesday, July 24, and a memorial service at 2 p.m. on
Wednesday, July 25, followed by a reception. All will take
place
at Little River United Church of Christ, 8410 Little River
Turnpike, Annandale, VA 22003. (Note that the church is not
visible from the road. The entrance is across the street
from
Northern Virginia Community College (NOVA).)
In lieu of flowers, please make donations to the American
Cancer
Society (for research) or the FPYC (Fairfax Police Youth
Club),
which was a big part of Peter's life as a coach and an
advocate.
We are deeply saddened to lose the voice of one far too
young to
leave us.
