We were greatly saddened to learn that Ron Litman, Professor of Anesthesiology and Pediatrics, Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania and Anesthesiologist at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, Philadelphia, PA recently passed away. Ron was a paediatric anaesthetist by heart and a driving force for improved safety in anaesthesia, with a major interest in MH. He was heavily involved in MHAUS and he engaged constructively with the EMHG on numerous occasions. We have known Ron for many years and appreciated him as an open minded, extremely knowledgeable and loyal colleague. He will be greatly missed.
