Please take a moment to reflect on those who we lost during 2008. Closer to home, spare a bigger moment for those of your family and friends who you’ve lost in 2008. The list below is a few selected people who many of us will have almost known, grown up with or seen in the newspapers over the years. These are the people that remind us of our own mortality.
First and most important, our LSUK colleagues:
