It's a hard time of year for many; cold and snow, lack of sunshine, general malaise. Adding to this for me today was the news of someone's passing. He was a former beau, a friend's brother, and husband and father of 3. Though I knew of his illness, it still wasn't easy to hear of his passing. He was 49, which hits many of us closely who are around that same age. He was a good man, and my memories of him involve lots of laughing, joking, and fun.
In the days to follow, as others learn this sad news, there will be grief, anger, and many tears shed. But for now, it's time to pause and reflect on a life, short but well-lived, and the passing of a sweet soul. Rest in peace, Neil. You will be missed.
