<p>Dear all,<br>
<br>
It is with great sadness that I share the passing of Aat
Barendregt. This evening I talked to his son who found my messages
on Aat's phone as we discussed our road trip to the International
Syrphidae Symposium in France. Aat was ready, and excited, to give
his presentation about the decline of Syrphidae in the
Netherlands.<br>
<br>
I didn't know Aat well enough and hoped to know him better during
our trip. He was a kindhearted, friendly soul.<br>
</p>
<p>After Volkert van der Goot, Aat was the driving force of the
Syrphid studie within the Netherlands.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
With regards,<br>
<br>
