Bobby Brown passed away a few hours ago.
I'm too numb to grieve. Too shocked.
He was one of my most loyal friends.
56 years old. I met him 20 years ago at NextWave Telecom. A young guy in his thirties. Smart. A hard worker. Great sense of humor. Easy to be around. Always had my back.
We joined GTE together and headed out to California to build the CellNet network. Bobby headed up the LA office and I was the program manager in San Francisco. Together with Bob Wojcik in San Diego and Mike Wilbanks in San Francisco, we showed how wireless networks can be built.
Spent many great times in the Bay Area with Bobby. Lou's Blues.... Napa Valley.... San Ramon. New Orleans, Pittsburgh, Buffalo, Los Angeles, St. Louis, Miami. To many fond memories to process correctly.
To say he will be missed is not enough of a sentiment. He leaves a huge void.
God Bless You Bobby. Thank you for your friendship.
