I learned today, from several sources, that my former assistant Matthew Rarey has died. Mat was still a young man. I have no idea, at this point, what happened, but he had been very troubled in recent years. He yearned for the best, and if he often fell short, he was hardly different from the rest of us. I'll write more later, perhaps, since Mat kept in constant touch with me.
