I am sooooo sorry to hear about this. We have lost one of the great ones.

As an attendee at a DevCon years ago, it was Drew who I watched with great interest as he presented his material with flair, fun, passion and that legendary presentation pace. I'm sure everyone will agree that if your attention drifted for even a moment, you probably missed about 3 or 4 golden nuggets of information. No doubt about it, his sessions were always energetic and fun to be in. He inspired me to get into the conference speaking business.

I always enjoyed speaking with both Drew and Brent at the conferences. Brent was a good kid with a very bright future in front of him. What an awful shame to lose two such wonderful people.

If there is anything I can do to help Irene please don't hesitate to ask.
