I am still in shock! These are truly terrible news! There is so much more we needed to learn from him. Bob Rankin was one of the most humble, generous, knowledgeable and brilliant scholars I know. A real loss to all of us. Siouan conferences will never be the same again.

My thoughts are with his family in this difficult time.

Dear all,

It is with much sadness that I let you know that Dr. Robert Rankin has passed away.  I don't have any further details at this time, but I can pass on more info once I know more.  The Kaw Nation was just contacted within the last couple of hours about his passing.


I am extremely grateful that I got to visit Bob a couple of weeks ago.  

Sincerely,

Dave
