I am sad to be the bearer of these news. Richard Zach has a nice post about him ( http://www.ucalgary.ca/rzach/blog/2014/05/grigori-mints-1939-2014.html), Stanford has a memorial page ( https://philosophy.stanford.edu/content/articles/view/Grisha_Mints_1/) and his family has a webpage for tributes (http://www.grishamints.net/) I am missing Grisha very much, a great logician and a great human being.
