In memory of a friend

Kelly Jones was a good guy.

I'll be going to his memorial service this afternoon. He was a fellow wargamer, a decent man, fun-loving and very gregarious. I will miss him.

The last time I talked to him was September 2004. My daughter was just about to be born and he told the assembled gamers that it would be the last time they saw me for a long time, because I was going to be too busy. He was right, but neither of us expected it to be the last time we ever saw each other.

It's a cliche, but I just kept putting off calling him. I feel pretty stupid, given that a mutual friend told me Kelly was sick. Don't let this happen to you!
