In the Mathematical Biology community, Reinhart Heinrich (1946-2006) is well-known as one of the founders of Metabolic Control Analysis. Moreover, he made significant contributions to the modelling of erythrocyte metabolism and signal transduction cascades, optimality principles in metabolism, theoretical membrane biophysics and other topics. Here, the historical context of his scientific work is outlined and numerous personal memories of the scholarship of, and cooperation with, Reinhart Heinrich are narrated. Attention is drawn again to the pros and cons of normalized and non-normalized control coefficients. The role of the Golden Ratio in a dynamic optimization problem in genetic regulation of metabolism is discussed. Overall, this article is aimed at keeping alive the memory of a unique university teacher, researcher and friend.
