Dona Leicht from Kristalle has just informed me, and said they were planning a big birthday celebration for him.

I just hope I can have such a long and productive life in the mineralogical community.

I too am glad that he died in the midst of his friends, engaging in his favourite thing...what more could one ask.
George Burns and Bob Hope did the same and lived about as long too..both icons in their respective fields as well.

As I will be writing up the obituary for Dr Pough in the next issue of JCK, would any of you be willing to send me personal comments about Dr. Pough's contributions to mineralogy/gemology? Dr. Pough was gemstone editor for JCK I believe it was during the 1970's...
Thank you all very much in advance.
