Bittersweet. Such a talented, good to the core person -- what a loss. I couldn't keep still in my seat while at the same time feeling such sadness that this gift is gone. He had so much to give, so much to share, so much yet to do and these last few days of his life showed a touch of what he was really like. His camaradarie with his group was wonderful, the way he kept telling the girl it was "her night to shine" -- he didn't want to do this for himself -- he wanted it for us.
