N2 - Professor and physician Dr. Ernest L. Mazzaferri Sr. passed away on May 14, 2013, at 76 years of age ( 1 , 2 ). Ernie is remembered as a caring and talented physician, an accomplished scholar and educator, as well as a loving husband, father, and grandfather. He was a luminary figure, and few people have had a greater impact in thyroidology in recent decades. Here we include reflections from a few of us that knew him, as well as commentaries from people who did not. Ernie's passion was caring for patients and how to improve their care. Our goal is to pay tribute and memorialize the person we knew and the impact that he had on patients around the world through his dedication to research, lecturing, and writing that achieved remarkable global influence.
