Indeed, it was an extreme lost for me, lost of memories. Lost of friendship and lost of a history of a FINE man I have known since 2003. It was unfortunate that I did not have the time to see him and talk to him before his passing. Altough he is not with us but I am sure that he will be all around us.
My condolences to the entire family.
