Dear Friends and Colleagues,

On behalf of the ESPN I would like to express our deep sorrow on the very sad news of James Goodrich untimely loss. He was a great man, a great mentor and teacher to many of us, an inspiration to all of us and a great friend to me personally and to everyone of us who knew him.

He was a greater supporter of ESPN and a teacher to our courses for over 25 years. He was loved by anyone who was fortunate enough to meet him and talk to him.

It is a great loss for the wider Pediatric Neurosurgery Family.

He will be remembered with great affection.

May He Rest In Peace.

Spyros Sgouros
President of the European Society for Pediatric Neurosurgery
