Woof. What a year. I’m not one who subscribes to the idea that a calendar change will automatically mean bad times end, but I’m still glad to have 2020 in my rearview. Not even counting the bad things that happened in my own personal life, the world in general either went to hell or the hellscape became more prominently displayed.

But yeah, Larry was a guy I got to know in the process of working with him seven or eight years, every weekday morning. I considered him a friend and for him to just suddenly be gone was numbing.
