| I am very sorry to hear about Chester. I hope he went
peacefully and with no pain. I met him in the Cannes Conference in 1995,
and always read his updates and opinions and articles with respect and
interest. We will be a sadder and less complete world without him here.
Rob Camp Editor, European AIDS Treatment News I am so sorry to learn of Chester's death. What a loss. Tully Lyons, RD Sorry to hear about Chester Myers. I had read most of
his publications and was impressed with the depth of his understanding
and the clarity of his writing. I regret that I never made the time
to contact him directly.
I am very sorry. Thanks for the message.
It is always heart-breaking to hear of extra special people
who have devoted their lives to helping regardless of their own suffering.
I can't believe it! How terribly sad. I didn't know him,
but what a brilliant mind, what a loss!
I am sorry to hear of your loss at HIV Resources. He sounds
like a very dedicated individual but it also sounds like his spirit is
living on...
Chester was a really great guy (even though I never met
him in person), and I will miss him too.
I am sorry for your loss, that I will never meet him and
for the void he will be leaving. It is a blessing that he contributed
so much that will continue to be appreciated. Take care. You
are precious to us. love, Marcy Fenton, MS, RD
