A few weeks ago, management of a downtown office building sent out a group email that got right to the point:
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of a long-time tenant of the 200 Market Building, Mr. Jin Choo
For the people who worked in or visited the 18-story office building just south of Keller Auditorium, his death, of a heart attack at age 62 while getting ready to go to work that Thursday morning, is a reminder of something vital.
