I'm feeling slightly awed...

My father just forwarded an e mail to me, with some tributes that the family have received since Grandad's death.

I'm feeling rather amazed by some of them:

It is finally too late for our intention to meet him once. We always love Brewer spectrophotometer as it is a very intelligent and valuable instrument. Dr. Alan Brewer will be in our memory although we never met him and his work will be with us for last long.

That's from the Thai Meteorological Department.

Then there's this one:

I feel very sad to get the news.

Every people who works associated with the atmospheric ozone layer observation will never
forget his important contributions.

That's from the Chinese Academy of Meteorological Sciences.

Then there's another:

I was shocked to learn about Dr.Alan Brewer's death and was deeply saddened by the
news. Please accept my heartfelt condolences. May the departed soul rest in peace.
His scientific achievements will be remembered always.

That was from India, and another from Tribuvan University in Nepal read:

The Ozone study group of Nepal has been deeply shocked to hear the sad news of sudden demise of Prof. Alan Brewer.

We pray to GOD for the ETERNAL PEACE of the departed soul and offer HEARTFELT CONDOLENCE to you and the family members at this sad moment. Every morning we will be remembering him when we stand near Brewer spectrophotometer. Our contribution to manage a clean environment within the Brewer data would be the everlasting remembrance to Prof Brewer.

I'm feeling slightly in awe, and a little bit tearful reading these...
