On July 26, I lost a colleague and a friend. Marvic lost a loving husband and Philip and Jonathan lost a father and a doting grandfather of their children.

Medical students lost a dedicated teacher and a fair and just examiner.

The Maltese islands lost a well-respected and competent orthopaedic surgeon.

But Charles Grixti’s memory will not be lost.

The Association of Ortho­paedic and Trauma Surgeons of Malta will have his framed photograph hung in the orthopaedic seminar room at Mater Dei Hospital as a permanent memorial to one of its founder members.

Charles, it’s not adieu but au revoir.
