I discovered a former coworker in Aberdeen, SD, was killed in a car accident last night. Russ Keen was 61. He was a good reporter, storyteller and a good friend. This is the second former coworker at this newspaper to die in the past few years.

Here's the link to the story.

Another coworker, a copy editor, died a couple of years ago from lung cancer. She never smoked.

Treasure your friends. They may be gone so quickly. I have lost so many lately.

Eileen,

Sorry to hear about the loss of your friend/co-worker.  Yes, life is very fragile, especially it would seem as we get older. 

Sending you a cyber hug.

I get up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning my day difficult.

Sorry about your friend.  I know it hurts to lose a friend anytime  but when they die too young Its worse.

Eileen, I am so sorry to hear about your friend. It is very hard to lose a friend...I know that when I lost my Mary Lou it was rough. It seems like these things are inevitable but with the alternative of having no one that is special to us is even a greater loss.

My sympathies go out to you and to your friends family.

                    It's not what you gather, but what you scatter 
                        that tells what kind of life you have lived.
