What Michael said.
I learned yesterday afternoon of J.D.'s passing from Ammohead. J.D. and I have been in contact almost every day for the past few years via Facebook, and the news of his passing rocked me pretty hard. I have lost close to a dozen friends and family over the past year, and as I wrote to Lois yesterday--J.D.'s loss diminishes my world--our world. This part of "aging" really sucks.
