I felt the same hammer of shock that most would have felt when they saw the sticky. We knew it was coming but it didn't lessen it for me. The bravery and dignity go without saying but he honestly touched my world - his poems, his love for and from his family, that specialness he shared with his wife, the raw crudeness of his descriptions where he left nothing to the imagination -I felt I was living his world with him.
The way he dealt with things genuinely affected me. People talk of perspective but there have been times when I have been down or whatever and thought of him and subconsciously slapped myself. His life was short but he had experiences some will never enjoy.
To you Hazey, we were privileged to know you
Just how I feel, pleased someone was eloquent enough to express it.
