One of the odd things about this new-fangled world we live in is that we have the ability to sorta get to know someone and like them without having much, if any interaction with them, much less meet them face to face. There are a lot of people who I know from a few comments and a whole lot of writing, and who I would love to sit down and share a meal with.
Zach Hill, author of the Minimum Wage Historian page, has been on that list for a long time.
Friday, Larry Correia, who had the pleasure of knowing him in real life, announced that Hill had passed away. He leaves behind a young wife, his family, and a long line of friends and people who liked his writing and thinking.
I can’t eulogize Zach the way that Larry and others have done, but I can say that I regret not meeting him and I will miss the smiles and nods his writing brought to me.
Zach’s friends have set up a donation site for Zach’s family, and I’ve chipped in a few dukats. If you have it to spare, I’m sure any donation would be appreciated.
