On January 4th 2006, my grandfather passed away of brain cancer. Although we had been close when I was younger, as I grew up, we grew apart. I wasnt sad to see him go, he lived an amazing life. I was sad to see him go the way he did, to have to suffer like that was one thing the man did not deserve.
Yesterday morning my boss's wife called me to tell me that my boss had died at some point Saturday night. He went to sleep on the couch, and never woke up, leaving her to find him Sunday morning at 7 am.
I had only known Mark for little over a year, in that time, he became a mentor, semi father figure, and a friend as much as a boss can.
Yesterday, I stayed in all day and played poker not really thinking about it. This morning was another story.
For over a year, every Monday morning, he would be my wake up call. if we didnt speak all week, Monday's were the day that I could count on at least one phone call right around 8 am.
This morning It didnt come.
RIP Mark, you will be missed...
