"Last week, I was notified that a long-time Linux Advocate is
dying.
"His name is Bruno Knaapen and he has brain cancer.
"Honestly, I don't know what to say. There are not any words
that I can give him or his family that communicate the
gut-wrenching sorrow I feel. The fear...the inability to stop the
inevitable.
"I don't do well with the whole "death" thing. Having fought
this Monster for my own life, I take it a bit too personally, and
when it attacks a friend, I feel like an impotent bystander
watching a murder."
