From my favorite cartoonist, Paul Noth.

James Taylor died yesterday. Our dear James Taylor -> Galaxy began with you. We will make sure it continues. We have no words.

Our hearts are heavy. James Taylor has passed away. A kind and generous person. His contributions to science are innumerable and he was just getting started. Deep condolences to his family and many friends and colleagues all over the world.

Happy Birthday, Dr. Gall!
