On Saturday we learned that the night before our good friend Dan collapsed in his home while preparing the evening meal. He was 47 years old and an athletic vegetarian without vices. A far better man than most, and I include myself in that lesser group. A great husband, father and teacher. Apparently, a genetic mutation caused his heart to get its wires crossed and his heart went into ventricular fibrillation. Here one moment, and the next…. gone. My family is no stranger to sudden cardiac-related death. But this was stunning to us all the same.

We extend our most heartfelt sympathy to Dan’s wife and family. I don’t know how you get to closure on something like this. It just seems impossible. But the family is strong and I am absolutely sure that they will find a way to honor Dan with their future lives. Goodbye, Dan.

Linda always says this sort of thing better. More here and here….
