What a loss Dec 5, 2018

I haven't even been on ProZ that long, but I immediately recognised his name.

He also helped me when I started out my business.

Condolences to his family and friends. He will surely be missed.

How very sad! Dec 5, 2018

I always enjoyed his thoughtful contributions but perhaps most of all the ironic but friendly smile in his profile picture.

That first facebook URL here seems to have been taken down. But here's one I found where his passing is lamented by his Brazilian colleagues. It has that same great photo of him used on PROZ:

This is a shock Dec 5, 2018

If translating hadn't existed, he would have invented it.

Rest in peace, you will be dearly missed.

Shocked and Saddened at the News Dec 5, 2018

I just found out yesterday, I thought it was a mistake. José was a great contributor with content-rich advice. He gave me very specific ideas directly, without even being asked. A great asset to the translation and interpretation professions has left us. Rest in Peace, and many blessings on his family.

Very sad news Dec 5, 2018

So sad to hear this news. Unless his photo was taken many moons ago, he was still very much in his prime. His death is a real loss to the world of translation. My condolences to his loved ones.
