Abstract
Nathan passed away in July after a lengthy illness. I am sure most of you are familiar with his many contributions to heavy quark physics and it is certainly fitting that we take a few minutes to honor him at the beginning of this meeting. Actually Nathan's main physics interest was the strong interactions rather than heavy quark physics per se. He was already very well known for work he did with Gabriel Karl and others on the nonrelativistic quark model before the work that he did on heavy quark symmetry and its applications. However, Nathan understood the limitations of the nonrelativistic quark model, and was thrilled that the methods he helped develop allowed one to derive systematically from the theory of the strong interactions many properties of hadrons that contain a heavy quark.
