Although it is not a sudden surprise, it is so saddening to mark the passing of Dominick Dunne.

My condolances go out to his family and his multitude of friends.

He will be sorely missed by so many. He made his mark on the world, and it was a good one.

Sprocket, I know you are particularly sad to see Dominick go, as you two developed such a nice friendship during the Spector trial. I so enjoyed reading your tales of lunch with him and I think of you as I mourn this great loss.

Too soon, I know you'll agree... I just wanted a little more time. He was an amazing man and a wonderful writer - his advocation of the victim and tireless dedication to that calling was a joy to behold, and the wit and candor added was such a bonus. He is missed.
