Today I lost a friend I've never met.
I was surprised to learn today that William the Coroner had died on Sunday, when I looked at the "In memoriam" post on another blog that I follow. Sure, I was expecting to see a post memorializing someone the blogger was close to, but never imagined that it was someone I "knew."
William was, by all that I'd read, a good man: single, but loved his students, his cats, his job. He was mentor, teacher, coroner, final voice for those who've been silenced, and friend. I enjoyed reading his blog, even going back and reading through the archives.
I will miss his posts, his wit, his small presence in my life.
Rest well, my friend.
