In
remembrance of Professor
Rob Pierce, Lost in The Victorian Bushfires, February
2009
.........................................................................................................................
Professor Rob Pierce was a respected colleague
and one of our esteemed authors and by way of
tribute I copy a worthy testimonial from one
of his former PhD students, as published in
the Melbourne Age.

A good man lost
Please take a good look at the face of Professor
Robert Pierce (feared) dead in Kinglake. I knew
him for just a short time as PhD supervisor
at the Austin Hospital.
Professor Pierce was a wise, noble, brilliant
man who cared for the future of humanity and
his patients with a rare genius as well as warmth,
humour, humility and grace. He had a mind like
a steel trap and a heart of gold. He clearly
loved his family, his staff and his students
and was always available despite his busy international
schedule. His contribution to medicine and the
science of sleep and breathing was immeasurable.
As a doctor, he cared for his patients with
deep humanity. I suspect he might have died
in a similar way, trying to help in some way.
Professor Pierce was one of those rare individuals
who make the world a better place, so please
take great care in looking at his face. He was
a very good man.
