In February of this year, Don Baldwin passed away after a brave battle with cancer. Many of you may not know Don. Don was the Secretary/Treasurer of the Astrophysical Research Consortium (ARC) Board since its formation, 19 years ago. He played a crucial role in the formation of the consortium, the establishment of consortium agreements and bylaws, the later organization of the SDSS collaboration and management structure, and many of the "behind the scenes" aspects that may be invisible to many, but form the backbone of the organization. Don was the ultimate gentleman who got things done efficiently and effectively, not only through his administrative skills, but also through his generous and kind nature. To honor Don, ARC decided to name the Operations Building at APO after him. This happened in a brief ceremony during the recent SDSS Advisory Council and ARC Board meetings at APO, in the presence of Don's immediate family and many colleagues and friends.
