[ABE-L] Fwd: Brian Marx

[Cibele Russo]

Que triste notícia, Aluísio.

Em 2013 tive o privilégio de presenciar a participação emocionante de Brian
Marx (à distância) no evento de aposentadoria do Paul Eilers na Erasmus
University em Rotterdam. Foi um dos momentos mais marcantes daquele dia.
Fará falta ao IWSM, à comunidade estatística e ao Paul.

Abraços,
Cibele
