Barukh Dayan ha-Emet

Mikey Butler, Refael Michael Yitzchok ben Nechama Sarah, 1979-2004

Mikey died Monday morning. He was one of the bravest men I have ever met. He was a tzadik; one of my role models for what a tzadik should be. His knowledge that he was dying - in front of your eyes, even - never reduced his overwhelming simcha and love for others. He was, is, a hero of mine and his death is shattering.
