Dear All,

very sad news indeed.
We've lost a scientific mentor and exquisite person.

All my thoughts go to his family.

Dear Friends,

Today is a hard day for our community. One of the founders of combinatorial pattern matching passed away last night.
See Raffaele's message below.

Our hearts are with Titti and Rosa.

Subject: Sad New about Alberto




Dear Friend,

last night here in Lipari Alberto had a massive hearth attach. He is no longer with us.
His family, I and a few other friends here are in a sort of vacuum.
The only rather grim consolation is that, laying on his bed, he was the image of peace.

Please share the  sad news  with the scientific community. I have contacted all Italian Universities in which Alberto has worked.

His funeral will be in Salerno, where his wife and daughter have decided he should rest in piece.

I will give you more news as I get them.

Sadly,

Raffaele
