A very dear colleague of mine died this week.  It was he who I came to work for, and with whom I had a rare personal as well as professional relationship with over the past five years. The news is devastating.  My heart goes out to his family, to whom he was devoted.  The knowledge of his devotion makes his death even harder to comprehend.  My thoughts go out to them, and are with them when I wake and when I fall asleep.

Rest in Peace M
