    Shockingly sad. To say he will be missed here is an understatement. I can only imagine how sad for those who knew him.

    I'd just fb friended him last week on a correct guess of his avatar, and found out that he was going to have some sort of heart surgery. I sure wasn't expecting this to happen. Damn... first Ross from St. Paul, now Chico. Rest in peace.

    From the looks of his FB timeline, between March 2 and March 4- I didn't see his FB page after mid Feb until March 4. I knew he wasn't well, but I wasn't expecting that... almost beginning to think I ought not FB anybody else. I've lost three friends in two years or so, and only Chico was over 50. I never thought I'd really lose sleep over it, but there's something in seeing people's usernames on recent posts that fools you into thinking they'll always be posting.

    Rarely does a visit to bigsoccer leave me feeling worse than I felt. This is one of those times.

    Edit: I just checked. He posted last night around 7:30. Sigh.
