We lost a dear colleague in 2013 – Dr. Raivo Tamkivi (Estonia). One of the 3 leaders of the Baltics Dynamics for over a decade, Raivo inspired students and colleagues alike. With exceptional vision, work ethics and tenacity – especially during his last years, he accomplished the essence of what most envy: our deep respect, admiration and wonder of the man he had become. Well-deserved, dear friend…you are missed. |
