Hello people,

This is a short note to inform the anthropological world of the untimely
passing of Dr Jeffrey Clark (Dept of Anthropology & Archaeology, James Cook
University; lately seconded to the Australian National University) in the
early hours of 16th of June, after losing his battle with cancer. Those who
knew Jeff will be aware of his significant contributions to Melanesian
anthropology in his short but prolific career. He was a colleague of
prodigious intelligence, rare wit and sedulous approach to his work. I have
lost an exacting but enthusiastic PhD supervisor and dear friend, my son
has lost his 'padronne' - and we have all lost his unrealised potential.

Vale Jeffrey.
