    My sincere condolences to Dr. Mark Taylor’s wife Anya, his sons, and his entire family.

    I had communicated with him only recently so I am shocked and saddened at this news.

    Does anyone know where he will be waked or where flowers/donations in his name may be sent?

    I will remember him, and his brilliant words, forever.
