Subject: Death of Leonard Carlitz

Thanks to Tom Koornwinder for pointing out that the July 2001 issue of the
Notices of the American Mathematical Society mentioned that Leonard Carlitz died
in 1999 and that MathSciNet refers to obituaries by F. T. Howard in Fibonacci
Quart. 38 (2000), no. 4, 316, and by Joel V. Brawley in Finite Fields Appl. 6
(2000), no. 3, 203-206.
