Dear Hermann:
I have known Jurgen Ehlers since around 1957 while he was still a student of Pascual Jordan. It pains me to learn of his death. The last time I saw him was here in Syracuse where he spoke at a memorial meeting honoring Peter Bergmann. Can you send me the snail mail address for Anita. I would like to send her a note of condolance.
Sincerely yours,
Josh Goldberg

Prof Juergen Ehlers was a leading relativist and teacher and will be sadly missed. He was always ready to help and encourage me (and many others) and although, due to geographical reasons, I only saw him infrequently, I will personally miss him very much.
I send my condolences to his family.

Sorry to read about the death of Ehlers. It is a page of the history of the Albert-Einstein-Institute that is being turned.
