I just found out that Bill Mares died yesterday (7/30). He and I were on the Digger board and just had coffee together on June 18th. He also wrote me this email three days ago that I only saw today.

Dear Louisa, I want to thank you for the honor of serving with you on the Digger board. It was like being a fellow at the Adlai Stevenson Institute with the likes of David Halberstam and Murray Kempton. I can't say this any better than Pericles. I apologize for the sexist tone, but it was written 2500 years ago.
I am soooo sad. He was such a wonderful man. He was also a good friend of John's.
He and David Goodman had one final conversation.
Heavy, heavy heart.
