In emial from John Atwood dated 30 Jan 2012:
It is with sadness that I inform you that Carl E. Darigo died on Friday, January 27th 2012, at the age of 84. Carl was born in St. Louis, MO in 1927 and received a Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering from Washington University in 1947. He worked for Anheuser-Busch for 43 years before starting his second 'career' in the Bryology Department at the Missouri Botanical Garden. Carl was a Research Associate at the Missouri Botanical Garden for nearly 20 years, publishing 72 papers in that time. A more complete obituary as well as his bibliography is being prepared for The Bryologist.
