Hello,
Just a quick note that I am retiring from the University of Washington.  I wish to thank everyone on this listserver for their helpfulness in answering my questions and the many informative discussions on microscopy and imaging.  I’ve been subscribed since shortly after PC Cheng set up the server in his lab at SUNY Buffalo for users of the new-fangled confocal instruments.  It created a community that expanded with field.

 My email address will remain active, however any inquiries regarding the Digital Microscopy Center should be directed to my replacement, Kim Miller, [hidden email].  Especially, if you want to use our services :-)!

Dear Glen

It was my pleasure to met you personally in a Pawley's course in Vancouver (early 2000’s). I wish you a nice retirement, though I believe it will be a retirement on the paper only: Once a microscopy, always a microscopist ;)

Best wishes,

Dear Glen,

Great news!! Now there is no excuse to come up to BC wine country for a visit.  I very much miss our many years of supporting Jim Pawley and the 3D Microscopy of Living Cells Course in Vancouver, BC.  Those 2 weeks each year  rooming with you, Felix Margadant, PC, Steve Cody, and Scott Wetzel won't be forgotten.
Have a wonderful retirement.
Michael

Dear Glen,

We have consulted each other over decades, which developed into a friendship that I value highly. While it’s sad that our professional discussions are nearing an end, I look forward to hearing tales of you retirement. Hiking trips into the wilderness, search and rescue operations you are involved with.  Maybe we’ll see you down under again soon.

All the very best,
Lynda and Steve

Dear Glen,

On behalf of myself and the hundreds of UBC live-Cell course “survivors” and Confocal Listserve followers,  I want to thank you with all our hearts for your selfless and expert assistance in making live-cell microscopy the evermore useful technique it has become. So I will. Thank you!

I hope you will still check in to the Confocal Listserve now and again.

Best,

JP

Hi Glen,



We’ll visit you in Seattle, one of my close friends is starting her lab in University of Washington, was about to write you a email to take care of her(and maybe her husband…), oh well, they are grown ups, just suffer quietly.


Thanks for Vancouver. Without the crew of the Vancouver courses, I won’t be where I am (probably can't learn mouth pipetting anywhere else :)).


I try to force Felix and PC to write a response but they are both flying around like mad as usual. PC’s plane landed in Narita instead of somewhere in the US, typical……probably very unhappy now…


Well, me have a long way to go before retirement so I have mountains of work in front of me….quite jealous of you from that point of view…..


So, on behave of Felix and PC(Still trying to force them to write a reply, might work)…. live long and prosper, don’t eat GFP and dye.



From the Edna in dipole moment (either in Singapore or Oslo)

Dear Glen

What a loss for the world of light microscopy !!!

We hope that your retirement will be as much a success as your professional contributions were.

During our long exhausting work nights in Vancouver you showed me how much better imaging could actually be than my miserable efforts during my PhD time. Those multi-channel images were true eye openers and I still realize how far from the cutting edge my work has been before I got educated and elucidated by you guys!!!

I am still a terrible microscopist after all these years but now I know at least what to aim for with my contraptions.

And I am still indebted to you for all your support and help starting my current career.

I hope that we can find a reason to visit you in the foreseeable future.

All the Best,
  Felix

Dear Glen -

Happy retirement! You will be missed! I feel lucky to see you one more time
in the microscopy world this January!
Should I put you to work? (you know, for old time sake?)

Cheers,
 Holly
