Farewell to Bob Guskind

Saturday was the memorial for my friend and associate, Bob Guskind. I was dreading the whole thing, because... well, no one wants to go to the final memorial of the life of someone they cared about. But, went I did and must say it was the most wonderful send of (for lack of a better term) one could have.
Bob introduced me to many people whom I finally got to meet. I wish it were under different circumstances, but nonetheless it was good. I learned more of a new friend whom I lost. We all share a bit of the Bob we each knew, making him more of who he was that we each had yet to learn for ourselves.
If Bob never knew exactly how appreciated by and how important he was to so many, we all know... and I hope somehow he was there to see for himself.
