Andrew and Josie Wilcock 5th November 2024

I will miss being amazed by your drive, commitment and passion to improving the care of the dying. It was truly life-long, undiminished and unparalleled. I will miss being amazed by your voracious reading ability and capacity for work. I will miss being amazed by your skill in taking the complex and distilling it into a simple, clinically relevant and memorable summary, readily taught. I will miss our early morning ‘ping-pong’ of manuscripts, the multiple versions and the minor tweaks and finally putting the much-improved version to bed. I will miss being encouraged and nurtured into taking on and developing things I never thought I’d do (or planned to!). I will miss the enjoyment of our 30-year writing partnership and broader friendship, with never an argument. Rest easy Robert, comforted in the knowledge that around the world countless people have lived and died better because of your devotion to palliative care.
