Dear Listserv Members, On behalf of Stan's surviving family and the Marine Mammal Behavior and Cognition lab of the University of Southern Mississippi, it is with heavy hearts that the former and current students of Dr. Stan Kuczaj inform the marine mammal community of Stan's passing, April 14, 2016. Stan's openness and love of all animals and people created an extended family that spreads across nations and oceans. We mourn the loss of this intrepid spirit. As soon as we have more specific details about how we will celebrate his life and the vast legacy he left behind, we will post another announcement. Please direct any questions or comments to Dr. Heather Hill at hdolphin18@gmail.com<mailto:hdolphin18@gmail.com>. Respectfully, Stan's students, colleagues, friends, and family
