I was aware of Bart's passing thanks to some mutual Facebook friends, but I hadn't expressed my grief publicly until I began posting again at TOP a couple of months ago. One of my first posts over there was an original pun that I was quite proud of and Bart's sincere praise greatly encouraged me to become an active member.
In the back of my mind, I had always believed that we would eventually meet in person and the realization that now this would not happen was an emotional blow all its own.
