A few of the old University of Denver Bookstore gang got together Friday night for dinner and drinks, and one of the main topics of conversation was the passing of our friend and former co-worker Larry, who was suffering from cancer and very ill the past few months. Larry was one of the two Operation Coordinators for the DU Bookstore, and a heck of a nice guy. He retired from the bookstore at 62, and passed away at 68, and so he had a mere 6 years of retirement. And I have heard of many instances when someone retires after a lifetime of work and passes away just a short time later. Another lesson showing that we should enjoy life and live in the moment, since we don't know what the future will bring.
