Dear List Members, Murray Charters' passing is a great loss to Parkinson's communities globally. List members are benefited through his hard work of selecting information ( from among hundreds of news reports and latest findings on PD and related subjects every day) that he posted on PIEN to share with us. Though we have never met, he was like an old friend to us - members of the Malaysian Parkinson's Disease Association. We often print abstracts of articles he posted in PIEN in our in-house newsletters. We are grateful to Murray for his generous contributions to the Parkinson's Communities. May he rest in peace. Our sympathy and condolences to his family and friends.
