2 April 2020: That was not the news I wanted to wake up to today, or ever. One of my
favorite teachers and dearest friends passed away. I AM NOT OKAY.
Mike Nedrow was a beacon of light for me. I wouldn't have survived Garrett County
without him. Not only was he a great teacher (I had him for bio lab) but
he was an amazing friend. He shoveled snow out of my driveway, he
bought me groceries and paid my water bill when I was too poor, he
watched my cat while I was away adventuring, he gave me math books so I
wouldn't go crazy (including one he had written). He cleaned my entire
house after the Rapture debacle. He was always available
to talk or to help or to have an adventure. His office was always open
and available to anyone who needed him. Even after I moved away, he
remained a steadfast friend. The last time I talked to him, he said he
missed me and couldn't wait until next time I came out to visit. I guess
now, whenever I get out there, I'll have to sit on the boardwalk at
Cranesville Swamp and put my bare feet in the cold sphagnum moss without
him. 💔💔💔
