MEMORIAL GATHERING: For Simon Roberts and Franz von Benda-Beckmann at the LSA Meeting (30 May 2014)

The Commission on Legal Pluralism just circulated a message about a 'memorial gathering' for Simon Roberts and Franz von Benda-Beckmann to 'take place during the Annual Meeting of the Law and Society Association (LSA) in Minneapolis this year, on Friday, May 30, 6:30-7:30pm, in Hilton Board Room 3.' 
The formal announcement reads:
In Memoriam 
Simon Roberts 
Franz von Benda-Beckmann 
We deeply mourn the loss of two leading legal anthropologists: Simon Roberts, who died on April 30, and Franz von Benda-Beckmann, who died in January 2013. Some LSA members were their friends; many more knew them through their writings. We invite you to join us in sharing memories of Simon and Franz on Friday, May 30, 6:30-7:30pm, in Hilton Board Room 3.
