Jan was a remarkable person in many ways. Most of us knew him for his very educated and intuitive grasp of mathematics which he generously shared. He enjoyed passing along what he had learned. He especially enjoyed tutoring his granddaughter.
When Jan first began posting on the Tormek Forum, he was restoring an old well worn chisel which had belonged to his grandfather. It was a labor of love, a way to honor his grandfather.
Jan had a curious mind. Even in his sixties he was being tutored in English. Some of you may have noticed that following an expression in some of my posts I add, (English idiom meaning..........).
That was for Jan.
I will miss Jan.
