  Hey guys, I checked my email this afternoon and was surprised when I had a message sent to my school account. My urlLink adviser urlLink died yesterday afternoon (unexpectedly). He was only 54 years old, and he leaves behind a wife and a daughter (a student at the University).
He played a big role in the department, and I know I'm not the only who is shocked by this news. If y'all would, pray for his family and his academic family as well. From what I understand, he was a Christian man, which is comforting... but he'll be missed, just the same.
