I share in the deep sadness of the entire community. Harry was always stimulating, both as a scientist and as a friend. His work was invariably elegant and original. At a personal level I will always treasure the memory of those happy times when he shared his American folk songs with us.

I will miss him greatly

Dear colleagues,

It is with profound sadness that we inform the Dictyostelium community of
the passing of our dear friend and colleague Harry MacWilliams. Harry had
been unwell the past few months. He was showing signs of recovery and
decided to return to work. Harry collapsed in his office on Monday August
29, 2011 and did not regain consciousness. At this time, we do not have
additional information concerning his sudden departure.

Harry will be greatly missed.

Kind regards,

Adrian, Adriano Ceccarelli, Claire Bonfils, Kimchi Strasser and Pascale
