Grasping for Words

Many of you already know that we've lost a dear friend today. There's a lot I'd like to say about the man behind the media, but it's hard to cram 10 years of great memories into a single blog post, especially after the roller-coaster that today has been. So I'm afraid today's blog entry will have to act as a place holder, at least until I can get clear of the fog that has set in, and try to put into words my summary of a cherished friendship. Until that time, please allow me to convey my deepest thanks to everyone who has offered support, be it in the form of an ear or a shoulder, during this tumultuous time.
