It is with great sadness that we inform our readers of the death of our much-loved, unforgettable, longtime comrade Reuben Shiffman. Reuben died in Oakland on September 30 after suffering a heart infection while battling terminal bone marrow cancer. He was enthusiastic about the party’s recent programmatic rearming and actively involved in our campaign to open the police archives, as well as other areas of party work. Reuben, with his extraordinary knowledge and drive, will be deeply missed. Our condolences go out especially to his wife and comrade, Mary Ann. A more comprehensive treatment of his life as a Trotskyist leader will appear in the December issue of Workers Vanguard.
