I’ve been running on automatic since hearing about the loss of Alex Witherill a little over a week ago. A devastating loss for all who knew him. Alex was a pillar of strength for me through Ronn’s illness, death and my rebuilding from it. He was the definition of a loyal friend. Always a trusted advisor with an impeccable sense of humor and terrific wit. I’m just at a loss to think of a world without him. If you’re lucky enough to have had one single friend like him then consider yourself truly fortunate. I can only hope that he and Rondo have crossed paths somewhere in whatever is out there and are laughing all the way to the bank with golf clubs and red wine in hand. I’m going to miss you like you can’t even know buddy.
