His son says it was congestive heart failure which is as good a way as any to describe dying of old age. He was still coming to seminar last fall and celebrated his 91st birthday in December in pretty good shape, but has been gradually going downhill since. I don't believe he came to the office since late fall. He had a good run. Michael [For admin and other information see: http://www.mta.ca/~cat-dist/ ]
