My heart goes out to all the family and friends that were really close. Unfortunately I never really got to know him. Time in this life seems to go by so fast and before we know it the people that mean the most are gone. To anyone reading this, please take the time to share with the ones you love, EVERYTHING else in this life can wait. Everything else will not be important in the end. If you change a life or make someone else happy that is what will truely matter.
