just getting back to FB this afternoon to hear this sad, sad news....the tears don't seem to stop.....i fell out of contact with Win after his 1st stroke mostly of my own doing and as time slipped by I myself fell ill - I have cards and letters that i have written that sit here at my desk never having been mailed - I have a very long letter that sits on my desk top that i never sent to him........I cannot explain to anyone what he meant to me just in general and then during my early and then later stages of unemployment - the hours and hours of long phone conversations, the belly acheing laughter that we shared at times during those dark times - and serious stuff and mind boggling stuff that only he and i really understood - he was a very good friend to me and i hope i was to him - i knew when he needed to be listened to also - but we had not spoken in such a long time and we were not in contact - it IS a woulda, coulda shoulda moment for me that i am not very proud of - but i know Win knows that I loved him - I really hope he did anyway - I have very fond and distinctly clear memories of Win from FC days - he was such a pompous ass at times and in private moments with him a soft and caring young man just growing up as we all were and trying to figure it all out - he made me laugh he made me frustrated beyond belief at times(as i'm sure i made him also) and in the end made me know he cared about me and i him - he was in that "outer circle" of my inner circle of friends - but he held a special place in my heart and i will never forget him - his love for art and the creative thinking process - he was an artist in his own right, a poet of a sort - may he rest in total peace and be welcomed by all those franconians who have passed before him welcoming him home to his well deserved reunion in the heavens....i love you Win........you will be sorely missed.....
