Dan
Just received the news of Dan Simmonds’ (danbearnyc) unexpected death this morning.
People have already begun to testify to his great capacity for friendship and humor. I loved that he was also the guardian of the sort of glorious fey erudition that few attempt any more. He could be overwhelming, but never small minded.
In recent years he had made great strides with his health, which makes this even the sadder.
And he loved that damn bee.
