Jeremy, hello and thank you.
Just wanted to say that I appreciate reading this scholarly work, though it makes me very very sad at the poignancy of my personal sense of bereavement, as CEG was my supervisor and I was somehow close to him from 1986-1993......but those whom the gods love die young. It is really painful that he left us so suddenly and so prematurely - from our point of view.
Pity you can't say of him [as I wish was academically kosher] how his faith illuminated his personality, and go on to praise his sweet nature and magnanimity. 'By your fruits you will know them'. He certainly excelled another major theologian of his era in that [kindness]regard. I won't speak ill of the dead, though. I just know how
much I miss my teacher and friend, Colin Gunton. Our loss is so great when you think that we were robbed of perhaps 20 years of a normal life expectancy when he would have developed his thought and been our statesman.
I hope to correspond with you a bit more....I am now [though resident in Greater Seattle still], principal of a small seminary in AP, India and a univ. pres in the USA...and 60 this year.
Joy to you Jeremy and if you feel like it I'd like to hear where you are at in your career.
Richard
