Thank you, Mac. It is a sad time for us all. He was indeed someone I had the highest respect for, in fact he was the very reason I returned to Finland and decided to do my university studies here.

Platitudes as good, they give us something to say when we have least words at our disposal. They also offer us the protection of any real emotion, we can hide behind the platitudes and the fact that they are such (even when meant in earnest) makes it easier to receive them. From experience I've learned that it's the personal stuff that breaks you. So platitudes are good. You know what I mean?

Thank you for your kind thoughts. They are very much appreciated.
