June 20, 2013 - RIP James Gandofini

James Gandofini died yesterday while on vacation in Rome. We all knew the actor as Tony Soprano. I was on the couch every Sunday night watching the show, wondering who would be "whacked" next.

What is sobering about Gandofini's sudden death is that he was only 51. He was exactly one month older than me.

Two months ago, I "celebrated" the fact that I had outlived my own father. He too had died at 51.

The message I always tell my children is to enjoy life. Any day on this side of the soil is a good day.

Sure, Tony Soprano will be missed by his fans, but James Gandofini will be missed by his family and friends.

RIP - James
