We had a lot of years. Buddies. Rare and long lasting. I'm not sad. I had it good. He gave me a lot and I think I sent something halfway good back. He did a lot...really really a lot...a jillion times more than me, more than most. He was chaotic and he was precise. A really fine combination. He lived it fully. Miss him for sure. But it ended the right way if there is a right way. Doin' his stuff. In my opinion.
