Crap. I heard from David Van Amburg that Erie Media-Go-Round blogger and all-around good guy Jack Tirak passed on this evening. Jack had been coming to the Erie Blogger get togethers for a little over a year, and was unfailingly kind and gracious.
I let the other Erie Bloggers know, and I will keep an eye peeled for the viewing/funeral arrangements.
I just saw this when I got home ... I only met him a few times but my heart just sank when I read of his passing. :(
