Haven’t talked in years but think of you pretty often: This is a bummer. Really sorry to hear it as you were always willing to give someone the time to listen and were generally a really fun and generous person. Rip jonny playing cribbage or a game with all the famous dead figures from history (as we talked about many times!)
