A former colleague died yesterday, someone I haven't seen since before my sojourn in the Midwest. He was a civil engineer and long-time public works guy, the kind of guy who knows the location and history of every manhole and drain line in town.
He taught me how to write specifications for road projects and how to develop a mutually respectful, productive relationship with contractors. He had a great love of history and could talk with you on all kinds of subjects - always easy, friendly conversation that left you feeling enriched.
I will miss him.
