[edit] A long illness?

I apologise for being a bit insensitive here, but I'm unaware of any long illness that George was suffering from; I have removed that sentence until someone can back it up a little bit. George was still in his office at UNSW several days a week as late as 2002 — remarkable for someone in his mid-90s. George and Esther moved to Adelaide in mid 2004; I had thought the reason was Esther's poor health rather than George's. Dmharvey Image:User_dmharvey_sig.png Talk 13:25, 30 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Death with wife?

Shouldn't it be noted that George and Esther both died within hours of each other, as noted in Esther's page?

It already says that. Dmharvey 23:35, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
