Kibitzer's Corner
Aug-16-21  hemy: Yesterday, on August 15th 2021 my friend Boris Rositsan past away.

His heart stopped beating before the start of the 10th round of the Vilnius Speed Chess Championship. An ambulance arrived quickly and restored the pulse. Boris was moved to the hospital where he died after few hours.
