Dean Barnett: 1967-2008

Bill Kristol announced the extremely sad news today on the Weekly Standard’s blog:

It’s my sad duty to report that our good friend and valued contributor Dean Barnett passed away today. He was a remarkable man–principled, witty, and to all of us, a model of grace and courage. We mourn his passing and cherish his memory.

I had the pleasure of meeting Dean in Vegas last year at the BlogWorld conference, after having read his contributions to the Townhall.com blog for quite some time. The emails I exchanged with Dean always, always made me smile. He had an incredible sense of humor, a real talent for writing and a life marked with many blessings. My heart goes out to his family and friends.
