I wanted to put out a quick note to people reading my blog who know Hugh Daniels. I just got word that he was found dead in his home this afternoon. All I know right now is that it looks like natural causes.
If you knew Hugh, then it probably won’t be a surprise to you that they’re having trouble identifying and contacting next of kin, so if you can help connect those dots, drop me a line and let me know, and I’ll get you in touch with people if they need your help.
I feel like I’ve known Hugh forever. He was a neat, hyper-intelligent guy with a distinct worldview that was both fun to learn from and poke hatpins in. Dinner with him was always a fascinating, multi-faceted discussion.
I have no idea what services will be, if any. If you want to know, drop me a line.
The world’s a bit less interesting tonight.
update: they have made contact with next of kin, so the people that need to know are now in contact. thanks to those offering to help.
