[ilds] David Koch

[James Gifford]

Dear all,

I've just learned from Isabelle Keller-Privat that David Koch, the 
Director of Special Collections at the Morris Library, Southern Illinois 
University, Carbondale, passed away on 31 December 2015:

For many of us, David's work managing the largest collection of 
Durrell's papers was indispensable.  Ave atque vale.

Kinds thoughts to all of you,
James
