Jaime Ortiz-Patiño, who was one of the most influential early WBF administrators, died on January 4 at the age of 82. Patiño served as WBF president from 1976-1986 and was influential in the development of Systems disclosure forms as well as developing methods to promote good ethics at the bridge table. He will be sorely missed.
