I can not remember the first time I met Fons – it was probably during a conference of the European Association of Psychological Assessment, maybe in Budapest in 2005. I was later lucky enough to work with Fons as a member of the Executive Committee of the European Association of Psychological Assessment and to edit a book with him on assessment beyond self-reports. Fons was an extraordinary person in so many ways. I adore his work on intercultural assessment and his initiatives in this field that imprinted me and changed my view on Psychological Assessment. His work always seemed to be so tirelessly linked to progress in science, but he also was so much dedicated to the people. I experienced him as such a respectful, supporting, funny, friendly, optimistic colleague and mentor. He never left an inquiry unanswered. We will miss him very much. My sincere condolences to his family.
