Had to stop an reflect this a bit, how weird it is to first hear about a person on the day they die. "At least he died doing what he loved." Seems appropriate, but I don't know that for sure - and for me it's hard to muster up emotion for someone I'll never know or have a conversation with. I'm happy that someone bothered to chase a dream, and I hope his end was somewhat peaceful or at least quick.
