Hugh's wife, Diane, and I were long-time friends. My husband and I got to know Hugh when they visited us in Arizona and we subsequently visited them in Coburg. Hugh's outstanding characteristic was fierce intelligence. That combined with a warm, welcoming personality made him a pleasure to be around. Our condolences to his family.
