I am devastated to learn that my sports scheduling colleague and coauthor Kelly Easton has passed away. Kelly was instrumental in the success we had in scheduling Major League Baseball and countless other leagues. Deep condolences to husband Todd (Utah OR professor) and their family.

Jacques Desrosiers delivered the sad news that an #orms giant has left us forever: François Soumis passed away last night. The depot of this last vehicle tour is in heaven.

Very sorry to see the passing of Hugh Bradley. Hugh was instrumental in the development of ORSA, TIMS, INFORMS, and particularly IFORS, where he was treasurer for almost a decade. I will value my time with him and what I learned from him. www.vacahillschapel.com/obituary/hug...
