It fills me with sadness to inform you that after a brief illness
@Robertelamin passed away today at the age of 38. He was a UConn alum and the most ardent fan I've ever known. He was my friend for over 25 years and will be greatly missed. Please keep him and his family in your thoughts.
Wow I'm much older than you but I too have a best friend since my teens. This must hurt.
If its appropriate, can you let the family know (respectfully) that he was beloved here, albeit anonymously and will be surely missed? Also that he had a lots of friends, likes, great conversations with his Husky friends here and will be remembered honorably.
Just saying his conversations, banter and thoughts touched so many people here and his family may not have known this, particularly his kids if he has them. His keyboard had value.
I'm somewhat sad right now but so glad that I exchanged conversations with him.
