Death in a connected world
On the DCRTV site the other day was a notice that a college buddy had passed away. If it wasn't for one of my coworkers seeing that someone at WJLA had passed away, we might not have known for a while.
Mike Bayus was a funny, great guy who really took his job, even when it was at a campus TV station, seriously. He always had a smile and he would sing various TV theme songs all the time. He was a great guy, and it is a loss to everyone that knows him.
The really sad thing is that I never really stayed in touch. I'd hear his news every now and again. But, while I knew he was at WJLA, which is only a mile down the road, I didn't even know he lived in Arlington. It is a shame that, in this interconnected world, we often don't have the time to stay in touch with the good people of the world.
Rest in peace, Mike.
