Seeing his wife and daughter and family members, and hearing his family and friends speak about him were quite hard for me. And quite wonderful as well, to learn about the different ways he made this world a better place by having been here.

I knew he had done the volunteer firefighter work, and that he had his mobile DJ business, but I didn't realize the kind of influence or impact he had. Seeing all of the firefighters with their company trucks (several North Shore agencies) show up, along with all of the people who were there amazed me - but I was glad to be surprised to realize that is the product of a person who touched other people's lives in such a good way. And I'm sure there are lots of others too, like Scott & Nick, who couldn't be there due to location or work or some other obligation.
