Dear All,

These are indeed very sad and unexpected news.

I met Bill while he was a PhD student in Sung-Hou Kim's lab at UC Berkeley when I was a post-doc there, and I was immediately impressed by his congenial nature and enthusiasm for science.

We never met again after I left SHK's lab, but he was a frequent presence here, sharing his scientific and technical expertise, and I was indeed surprised that he had not contributed in a long while. Now I know why.

He will be missed by all of us.

I’ve been asked to pass along the sad news that Bill Scott recently passed away after a brief illness.  I’m sure many members of this community will remember his contributions to crystallography in general and RNA structure in particular.

His last wish was no flowers, but donations in his memory to MECA ( Middle East Children's Alliance) for the children of Gaza.
