Last night I got a phone call from a dear close friend of Redstone...

He died in his sleep last Tuesday night.

What a man he was! Funny, wicked funny, and smart, compassionate, intelligent beyond belief...and so much more.

His loss will be felt forever by his wife, and his sons, and by us.

Who among us did not relish his stories, his calm way of seeing events? I always felt so happy to see him posting, for I knew that there would be good things to absorb and ponder in his threads...

I don't know exactly how old he was, but I don't believe he was even 60...too soon, always too soon...

Our phone calls were not frequent, but they were memorable. I was honored to hear him laugh...

My heart overflows with tears...

Rest in peace, my dear Redstone...the world is diminished with your passing...
