winfred p lehmann 1916-2007

I just learned that Professor W P Lehmannn passed away on August first. He will be missed. I never met him, but I’ve read quite a few of his books, and I studied with one of his students. He founded the Linguistic Research Center at UT Austin. [Via Mr Verb.]

[Addendum: I just learned, after looking at this posting to the Linguist List, that Carol Justus, whom I just sent email to and alluded to above, has passed away also. Sigh.]
