Just got told one of my business partners died of COVID

Not sure how to process this right now. He had a wife, two young children, and family members in Syria he was supporting. The farther we get into this thing, the more people we know are just going to be gone.

Sorry to be such a buzz kill. It's times like these the comic relief of the Lounge comes in handy.

I can't imagine what its like to have your loved ones dying alone now because no one can be with them.

What a shock.
I keep wondering what the world is going to look like when this is all over. We seem to be losing such good people.

I think before this is all over, most of us are going to have some close brushes with mortality. My condolences to you and to his family.
