Truly one of the amazing people on this rock, Mr. Wortman, you have impacted my life immensely in the very short time I spent with you. My very best to your beloved wife and family. I know you thought the world of them, and therefore, you were also one of the few who'd had the unique opportunity of having set your priorities right. You will be missed.
