I'm heartbroken at the news. I still remember the DunDraCon where Darren had been speaking *a lot* over the four days. His voice was absolutely shot, but we'd all gathered at a nearby watering hole to have a post-convention get together. Darren suggested we go from there and get dinner at a "topless restaurant" he knew. A bunch of us cocked an eyebrow, but it was Darren, and he was saying the food there was good, so we were game to go. What we discovered when we got to the restaurant was that Darren was saying *TAPAS*. It was a good restaurant. It was a great time. I'm gonna miss him so much.
