G1-er

My friend passed away just this past January 2007. He was a really great guy, caring, generous, and funny. Frank was only 32 years old. He and his wife helped me and my wife through some rough times with their encouragement and food (they invited us over a lot). He had always wanted to get into the video game industry and I finally found an opening for him.

But during those last weeks in December, as he was preparing his artwork, he told me he wasn't feeling well. I told him to take a break. And that was it, the next thing I knew, I got a phone call that he fell into a coma. Man, I miss hearing his jokes and just talking art stuff.

It's sad, he and his wife were planning on having a baby this year, too. Just last year, my wife gave birth to our cute lil boy, we wish he could have met his Uncle Frankie, we don't have words to describe our sorrow...

Hm... just had to write about it because it's on my mind... it's 2am now, I have to sleep, need to go to work...
