This is the saddest day I've known in a while. There is very little I get as obsessive and excited about at food. The guy somehow found a way to my soul with his burgers. They were the type of food that I could not resist and always had to go back for more. I have probably been to this particular burger place more than I have ever been to any single other non fast food eatery in my whole life, which says a lot as this place was not cheap.

My most sincere condolences to all of his family and friends. He was a good guy and a great chef.
