We were both fortunate to work with Fred over the past year on a number of important AFEE projects, and as Dave commented, Fred was indefatigable and always prepared for our many conversations. He has put together an excellent program for our upcoming meetings in Boston, and we will be certain to make a point of remembering his work on behalf of AFEE and heterodox economics. And his legacy going forward will be a strong one, in the work he produced, in the students he mentored, and in the many projects to promote heterodox economics. To his students and colleagues, my deep sympathy.

I am one if his doctoral students, but unlike some I've not had the privilege of finishing with him. He taught me so much and changed the way I think of the economy and society in general. I'll never be the same. Fred taught me that economics is about social provisioning, and that social provisioning is about people. I'll never forget that and I'll never forget him. He'll always be in my economics. The last thing he told me was that,"You should never hold back, even if it makes them uncomfortable." I won't disappoint him. Rest in peace Fred. Mitch Green.

I wish to note that despite his illness, Fred worked tirelessly in helping to ensure that AFEE, and especially the JEI, continue to be strong. In Fact, Jan Knoedler, Eric Hake, and I received an e-mail from Fred just a week ago in which he asked us to keep him engaged in the work we have been doing with various publishers on the future of the JEI. Irrepressible and irreplaceable in the world of heterodox economics, Fred's legacy will always endure.

Given his deterioration over the last week, this was something of a welcome relief. The tentative date for his memorial service is November 8, but an announcement as to the details will be forthcoming. John F.
