Those of you who read this blog regularly are aware of his work which I’ve been featuring for the entire time I’ve been writing it.

We met over the years at various gatherings and he interviewed me for his book “Bloggers on the Bus” back in 2008. I considered him a friend and my world is a darker place without him in it.
