Sad News For Me Today
Just found out a good friend of almost 30 years died yesterday of an apparent heart attack. The reason I've mentioned it here on the Rolex section is because my friend was the first of my peers w/ a passion for Rolex, as he always wore his trademark YG DD.
He taught me that life was short [even before this], live life to the fullest [see the world], follow your passions [for him, flying & Rolex!], and do it all with a smile on your face [I'm still working on that one]. RIP, my friend. You've made the world a better and happier place. dP
