A Sad Day


I just found out that a friend died on Monday, apparently of natural causes. I'd never met him. He was an online friend. A good one. And a good man, full of fun and full of life. That is how I'll remember him. Quick with a joke, insightful, and above all else, kind.


I'll raise a glass to him tonight. I think he'd like that.


My condolences to all his other friends, and to his family. He will be greatly missed.
The art is Picasso's Blue Nude, 1902.

I hope it wasn't highpockets. He's such a good guy!

Way to young to have passed, I only knew P from his comments, they were always a treat...

I think it's sometimes harder to lose a friend you've only met virtually than in person...all the possibilities that went unexplored...I share your pain.

Peter,

Thanks sweetie. I wish I'd met him.

Ryder,

He was a treat all right! Very funny, and very sweet.

Rolfe,

No, not HP. He's doing fine, although you know his wife passed away recently.

No, this was marathonman.
