Today I was not paying much attention to my computer.  However tonight I checked my email and found out some tragic news. 

Gary Halbert has passed.

When I read the news was stunned.  Gary passed away in his sleep on April 8th.  The sad news started getting around earlier today.

 Gary’s influence can be seen, or felt all through the marketing world.  Many people list him as their influence, or mentor.  He will be sorely missed.

I did not know Gary, but felt like I did through his writing.  He was someone I studied and learned so much from over the years.

Gary’s best friend John Carlton wrote a fitting post on his blog.

Farewell Sir Gary Halbert.
