Nishimura was a great primatologist and a wonderful friend. He and his wife enjoyed the lemurs in Ranomafana before the IPS meetings in Madagascar, Yes, we will miss him.

Nishimura was always a modest and humble man, but a man of great accomplishments as well. I will miss him..... The entire primatological world will miss him....
