Deaths of Note

Two families (at least) are not going to have a Merry Christmas.

The first is the family of Triticale – The Wheat/Rye Guy. Triticale whom had leukemia and just passed away as a result of it and a recently discovered brain tumor. I never met him and never will. May God have mercy on his soul and comfort his grieving family and friends.

Another death of note is that of Walter Kolata. Walter was a longtime member of Appleton's common council. He recently left some commentary on Jo's Fox Politics blog regarding Appleton's water plant problems.

I can not say Walter and I were on the same side of issues (however, not living in "Appleton proper" it did not matter so much we were often on the other side), but we were both on this side of life until yesterday. May God have mercy on the his sould and comfort his grieving family and friends.
