Seattle Times

Well, I went home last night and read our first delivered copy of the Seattle Times only to find in the obituaries that one of our clients had died the day before!



He was 61 and had been ill for a time. They knew he would die soon. (His tax return was prepared early in the year and with haste in order to secure his signature on the filed return.)



He was a long-time client, and a Seattle police officer. Very tough (he was a Drill Instructor at Parris Island) and yet he was a very gentle man. He will be buried with full military honors.



I didn’t know him personally, but of course Shawn and Kellie both did and they were very saddened by the news.



It’s not the Times fault, but I’ll never forget our first paper!



Sigh.
