This is a belated notification of the passing of Stephan Maritz, an eminent member of the SSA and of the Australian statistical community for many years. I have just been advised that he died suddenly in 2021, at the age of 93, in South Africa. A tribute to his life can be found at http://archive.saeon.ac.za/enewsleter-archives/2014/february2014/images/SASANewsletterDecember2013.pdf. An obituary will be published in ANZJS later this year.
