Goodbye Marc Orchant

Husband, father, blogger, and all-around super nice guy, Marc Orchant, has passed away. I wish Sue and family peace after sorrow, and hope after grief. It’s a difficult time to know what would be the right thing to say. Everyone says that. So, my version of the right thing to say was that I spent a little time in Marc’s presence, and thought he was super swell. I was a faithful subscriber to his various projects and blogs, and I’m happy to have shared two meals with Marc. My memories of him are all good things. Safe journey, Marc, and my warmest wishes to the Orchant family at this time.

I’ll light a candle tomorrow and think of Marc and his family.

Sad, indeed. You and I shared one of those meals with Marc, and we talked about Batman! Of course, this means that the three of us won’t be able to compare notes after the sequel to Batman Begins comes out in 2008. That’s really stink! As well as everything else that is sad about this.
