This is to send our sincere condolences to the family and friends of Richard Simpson. He was a well-liked person who was the Secretary of the Math History Society for a long time. He was a great person whose lasting contributions to society and the lives of those who were lucky enough to know him have died. The mathematical community is saddened by his death.
Richard’s job as Secretary was more than just a title; it showed how dedicated, reliable, and funny he was, which could make even the worst days more fun. His laughter spread like wildfire through the halls of the math world, making both his coworkers and his friends happy. Richard wasn’t just a manager; he was also a friend, a guide, and a source of inspiration for those who worked with him.
Richard was always positive, even when things were hard, and he had a very kind heart. His positive outlook on life made everyone around him feel better. Richard’s influence made people feel welcome in a way that went beyond their jobs, and getting to know him was like making real friends.
As we say goodbye to this great example of optimism and friendship, the math community is aware of the hole that Richard’s death has left. His impact will live on in the hearts and minds of all the people whose lives he touched.
From everyone in our community, we want Richard’s family and friends to know how sorry we are for their loss. Even though he will be missed, his kind heart and positive attitude will continue to inspire all of us.
