I met Josh in CS class, junior year. He was the kind of friend that changes your life, introducing me to a whole group of new friends, the hippies. I had been lonely before that and his friendship filled a big gap in my life. We stayed in touch ever since and always enjoyed a special rapport. I will miss his kindness, openess, and humor.

He worked hard. After a career in TV news and then advertising production, he ran a gourmet coffee business and had just opened a cafe on Long Island. We did not have the opportunity to visit it.

Josh had been on vacation with his family when he was suddenly taken ill. Though airvaced to NY, he quickly succumbed to the illness due to complications.

Poor Michael. Apparently he was murdered in front of his house. We were friendly in high school, laughed together. https://www.whitleymemorialfuneralhome.com/obituaries/Michael-William-Vines?obId=27497844

Hey, Art. I seem to remember we were in an elective class at Haven on investing. Guess you took it more seriously than I did. Anyway, I wish you well.

Tasmania! It's actually possible my son, a newly minted MD, will emigrate to Australia or New Zealand. If so, I'll try to drop by.

A gentle guy with a good sense of humor. We were 7-8th grades at Haven. RIP.
