*** Sent on behalf of Peter Dederichs ***
Dear Psi-k Members,
You all know that Sandro has died in a traffic accident at the beginning of October last year. He was a very strong supporter of Psi-k and has supported Psi-k for many years with 2000 GBP annually, from money which was left over from a former industry contract. He did this also last year, finishing the order for the finance department of Kings College at the beginning of July. But nothing has happened, due to administrative problems at Kings College.
Carla Molteni at Kings College knew about this, contacted the administration very often and pushed about this last order of Sandro. Now the miracle has happened: The 2000 GBP for 2018 were transferred on Feb. 12 to Psi-k, 7 months after Sandro’s order and 4 months after his death.
I think we should consider this symbolically as a final greeting of Sandro and as a great push to support Psi-k in the future. At the same time we thank Carla for her strong effort to make this happen.
Many greetings
Peter
