Two Years Since the Universe Reached for a Good One

Two years ago today, my brother, Alan “Phred” Rainey, passed away after a long struggle with leukemia. One of the last things he said to me was “The Universe is getting the better end of this deal. It’s taking me away.”

The Universe got a hell of a deal.

After he died, I wrote up a collection of memories of him — you may find it here: “The Universe Takes a Good One” — January 19, 2021
