Sad News

I got the sad news that a school friend of mine, Keith Hogan, passed away yesterday. It was really a shock as we had a brief communication on Facebook just two days ago. Keith had muscular dystrophy and had been in a wheel chair for as long as I had known him. He was always upbeat, was very smart and never let anything hold him back.

Below is a short documentary video about his daily life. The group black and white photo that is shown one minute into the video was a class picture that we took in 8th grade when we went on a field trip to the state capitol in Austin. I am in the last row (of course) directly behind Keith.

My sympathies and thoughts go out to Keith's family and friends.
