sPHENIX is a new detector at RHIC.

[David Morrison <morrison AT bnl.gov>]

Dear collaborators,

It saddened me to learn of Satoshi Ozaki's death.  I think everyone
knows that RHIC exists in large part thanks to Satoshi's wisdom and
untiring work as head of the project to design and build it.  That would
be enough for most people, but in fact it's only a small part of what he
accomplished over his career.  In addition, he was a genuinely nice and
funny person and I always enjoyed talking with him.

Regards,
Dave
