Others have expressed well many of the sentiments I also feel. Aurelio and Patrizia were very kind to us. Our family loved travelling in his big Citroen and stopping off for delicious gelati on the way home from school. We were a bit worried once, taking Aurelio to an Italian restaurant at Bondi Beach (Papa Giovanni's). Could be a disaster. We were served our pizzas and were hoeing in. We noticed some mild activity with Aurelio's hands involving putting his finger to his cheek and other things. Then Aurelio stood up. We asked where he was going. He said the chef had invited him to taste the spaghetti he himself was eating at another table. Not a word had been spoken. So many memories, personal and mathematical.
