“I was so deeply saddened to learn that Vilas has left us way too soon. I will always treasure the friendship and wisdom he provided to me in launching the Global Resilience Institute at Northeastern U. where he was an inaugural distinguished fellow. His visits to our campus in Boston and our occasional dinner in DC always left me with an extra skip in my step. He was a national and international treasure who will be so missed. May his memory be eternal! Stephen Flynn, Founding Director, GRI”
