I'll miss him.

    I am so sad to hear of Jake's passing - hadn't gotten around to communicating with him for a number of months - but he was a part of my life from age five. We had many good conversations over the years. I remember when he went camping with lots of us kids at Eagle Creek with his "Sopwith Camel" when I was a teenager. I was sad when he and my mother got divorced and he took off to Paraguay - but I also understood it. He was always up for a new adventure and in a way it really wasn't out of character at all. I'll miss him.
