Given the date, and I don't have anybody specific to pay rememberance to I'll leave this here:

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

Alexander Grothendieck, one of the great 20th century mathematicians, passed away on Nov 13. Unfortunately for the math community, his political views led him to stop working in math and basically become a recluse at age 42 in 1970; many of his works were unpublished. All the obituaries I've seen have been in French (here's one), but his Wikipedia page gives a good overview in English.
