It is with profound sadness that we share with you the news of our beloved professor and friend Dr. Byrne, who passed away in his sleep on May 17. Services were held in Chicago, where as most of you know, Dr. Byrne and his family called home for many years. As alumni of our UM Department of Pathology, you either trained under him, worked with him, or consulted him for assistance on Hematopathology cases. Dr. Byrne was truly very special and will be deeply missed. We remain grateful for having had the opportunity to know him and to call him our friend.

On May 2-4, 2016, we saw first-hand that the College of American Pathologists (CAP)'s Policy Meeting (2016 CAP Policy Meeting — College of American Pathologists) is a must-attend event for pathologists. Seven Florida pathologists who are members of the CAP House of Delegates and the Florida Society of Pathologists attended this meeting. These included Drs. Marilyn Bui, Prudence Smith, Anne Champeaux, Jim Zhai, Jeffrey Smith, Oleksandr Kryvenko, and Peter Johnson. The meeting provided our Florida delegation with a unique opportunity to advocate for pathology and laboratory medicine, while also briefing us on key regulatory issues impacting the specialty and how to best advocate for legislative solutions to the problems that we all face.
