This is my father's obituary. Anatole Katok was one of the greatest mathematitions of our time, died on April 30, 2018. My family received hundreds of condolenses and stories about my father (many in Russian).  We made a website, anatolekatok.com, in which we consolidated this information, as well as posted a photo collection spanning my father's life from his childhood and student days in Russia, through current, and a set of interviews with him that were conducted by Professor Dynkin.  And this is my father's wikipedia page and this is his biography written by Boris Hasselblatt Ergodic Theory & Dynamical Systems, (2022), 42, 321–388
