Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: A moment of Silence for Lex De Haan
Hi:
I was fortunate to met Lex last year at HOTSOS and took some of his lectures there (specifically, he was a master of SQL syntax and constructs); but what made to me a most last impression was his ability to explain complicated terms and issues in a fluent and easy to understand language (it showed that he probably have taught at University or High School....it definitely showed he had experience teaching...which in our field sometimes is very rare to find).
For those of you that didn't have the chance to meet him, and will like to know how he dealt with SQL stuff, you can try taking a look at one of his latest books:

Lex, please RIP.......

Lex had cancer and passed away on February 1st.
All I have to say is good bye and good luck my friend,
Scott
