Super sad day for me and all Trek fans.

[Ernie Nemeth]

My good friend, Gopaul Singh, died three weeks ago.

I'd been trying to reach him for our usual weekly phone call, but no answer. I had a bad feeling, but dismissed it.
Yesterday I called and his sister answered his phone. I started crying immediately, in shock and disbelief.
He died of a heart attack in his sleep.
He was 58 years old.

He was instrumental in helping me cope with my wife's death. We would talk for hours on the phone.
In the last twenty years, I've seen him in person just one time. And he only lives a few minutes away.
Strange that, but that was him. We were planning on going to see the Leafs play hockey next month. Now that is history...

I don't know what I will do without him in my life. He's been my stalwart friend in my desperate time of need.

I hope his God looks favourably upon him, he deserves it.

Rest In Peace, my friend.
I will miss you every day, alongside my wife.

[Sue (Ayt)]

I'm so sorry Ernie. So similar to my own loss of a supportive friend around the same time.

appendum: my friend died, but his legacy continues

Gopaul's best friend from childhood, whom he talked to three times a day for ever, called me yesterday.
He said Gopaul had spoke highly of me many times and knew of my still desperate need for comfort and companionship.
He said, that if I'm agreeable, he'd like to take over where Gopaul left off.

I guess Gopaul found a way to help from beyond the veil.
Thanks Gops. Love ya, man!
