somewhat sille, that's me!

P just called to tell me that her assistant passed away from dengue this morning. Last week I sent out a company-wide memo to inform the Group that the CEOs of one of the company's subsidiaries had passed away. And in early January, we posted a condolence ad in the papers for our director's passing. All three departures were unexpected and sudden (for most of us). And while I've only met and chatted with them over work matters, it still feels weird and sad to know that I would never see them again, never work with them again, never share a cordial laugh again. RIP, gentlemen.
