Thanks to Melanie and Lee for their remembrances of Horst Meyer. I am one of the numerous Duke librarians mentioned by Melanie who had the good fortune to know Dr. Meyer over the years. I may have first met Horst when I was the Chemistry Librarian (back when we actually had a Chemistry Library). And I know that I had interactions with Horst while I was the Engineering Librarian (back when we actually had an Engineering Library). And I probably helped him a time or two while on duty at the Reference Desk in Perkins Library. The infectious energy of Dr. Meyer had the same impact on me as on Melanie and Lee. He was a pleasure to be with. And like Lee, I recall seeing many wonderful Horst Meyer donations on the gift shelves in the Collection Development office. But my favorite memory of Dr. Meyer was seeing him at the Durham performances of the North Carolina Symphony. The Symphony was very kind to come to Durham, because we were not able to generate much of an audience (as a consequence, we now must drive to Raleigh or Chapel Hill.) The Meyers, however, were always there in Fletcher Hall at the Carolina Theater together, husband and wife, in seats near the front. Horst had no doubt heard world class symphonies in Europe and the U.S. The North Carolina Symphony then was hardly world class (it is now in my opinion), but Horst would nevertheless applaud their performances with supreme gusto. The musicians clearly knew the Meyers, they were fixtures at every concert, and many of them looked to the Meyers appreciatively to acknowledge their ovations. A number of those same musicians are still with the Symphony today and no doubt benefited professionally from the positive response of Horst and Mary to their efforts, just as we librarians valued the support of Horst Meyer for our efforts with the scholarly community that is Duke University.
