I am so saddened by this news that Professor Bronkhorst and his wife are no more! I was fortunate to have met him, someone I called 'the *guru* of my *guru*' (*paramaguru*), in 2018 when I was a PhD student, and he was incredibly kind and encouraging. I hoped to see him again at Oxford, too. His presence will be greatly missed.
