The Road Not Taken

I received some sad news today. My friend Myron McCauley died a few days ago. I met Myron while working in Colorado Springs and he became my staff manager and subsequently my friend. Myron was always available to help out and offer advice and guidance on both a personal and professional level. I can honestly say that he was one of the most sincerely genuine and thoroughly decent men I have had the pleasure of knowing.

I am saddened that Myron will not be answering my emails anymore and swapping updates about our lack of guitar playing prowess. I am sad I will not get to show him and his family around London as I had planned to do when they had eventually decided to fly over to London for a visit. We all have to go at some point but I would have liked Myron to have been around for a while longer. He was one of the good guys.
