In case you didn’t happen to see this over at Bronx Banter, Todd Drew (just a few months shy of his 42nd birthday) passed away today.

I never met or spoke to Todd. And, we never exchanged e-mails or the like. In fact, I’ve never spoken (or had some other form of communication) to anyone about Todd – until now.

But, from reading his blog as well as his work at Bronx Banter, I did (somewhat) get a feel for the type of person he was…and he seemed like a pretty cool dude.

It’s incredibly sad to hear of his passing – especially given his young age. The Yankee-bloggers circle lost a good one today.

I would bet that his family will be looking at comments left over at Bronx Banter today regarding this news. If you’d like to convey condolences, I recommend stopping by there (again, if you haven’t already) and doing so…
