Sad surprise

I've been checking in with co-worker Mary Kunz Goldman's blog in the last few weeks, seeing how her book with musician Leonard Pennario was coming along.

Imagine my surprise, then, when the first edition of the newspaper came up from the printing room on Friday night. I was looking through it when I got to the obituaries, when I read that Pennario had died. It hit me a little harder than I thought, which I guess is a tribute to Mary's writing.

You can see what she's been going through by going here. In the meantime, my sympathies to her to the loss of a friend, and to his family.

Introducing my co-worker

It's seems one of my co-workers is writing a blog too. Copycat.

I jest. Mary Kunz Goldman's blog can be found by going here. She's currently working on an authorized biography of Leonard Pennario, and is out in San Diego talking to him and doing some research. It's interesting to see how the process is taking shape.

Tough to believe, though, that people would buy a book without any hockey fights in it.
