I don’t know how much detox this provides, but this blog has comments from three anonymous posters who claim to have known him.
I have known Mitch since he was born—he is my cousin—and the answer is in there—at age 12 he lost his father—and at the funeral I saw the spark of life go out in him. To loose a father and then describe it as a material process in-order to cope explains the next 23 years and ultimate end.
I knew Mitch and he had a good sense of humor. I’m happy to hear his cousin’s insight, as Mitch was a mysterious guy, not prone to intimate discussion. A lot of on-line bloggers are scoffing at his book, which irritates me...if they knew him, how passionate he was about it, they’d have more respect. I wish I could’ve helped Mitch somehow, but he wasn’t one for heart-to-heart talks. A pleasant person to have around though, and I will miss him. For someone with Aspberger’s he really tried hard to socialize...at barbecues, art shows, parties, and on hikes. I wish his book all the best.
I knew Mitch for several years and I didn’t know he had Aspberger’s. I always enjoyed our talks. I think his book will get out there. Whether that is for the good or not, I don’t know.
