It deeply saddens us to let you all know that Mr. Mike Simmons passed
away suddenly and unexpectedly on June 3, 2020.
For those of you that may not know him. He was the "grandfather" of the so-called GTSPP continuously managed database (CMD), the one-and-only well documented and widely used oceanographic profile database in the world. Without his effort and endless sacrifice , the GTSPP (http://www.iode.org/gtspp) can not be such a success as an IODE project during the past two decades or so and the "ball" is still rolling.
He is survived by his wife, his sister, two sons, and his granddaughter.
