What a tragic loss.
My condolences to the family.

> What can I add to this? Drew was a colleague and, I am pround to say, my friend. I will miss him more than I can possibly say. My heart goes out to Irene who has lost both husband and son and I know that everyone will join Marcia and I in mourning Drew's passing.
