Life Sucks!
Last Friday, Mario called and left a message that he had been laid off. He'd been told earlier in the week and wanted me to know that he would not be there the next time I needed help.
Mario came up to me on the boat trip of the quarterly Vocus meeting because he had not seen anybody on the boat who had more gray hair than he did, and I did.
Mario was full of life and personable and helpful and warm. He was interested in everybody he met. His job was to host Webinars for PRWeb that Vocus had purchased in the last year or so.
Between drinks on the boat trip, Mario told me about PRWeb and I told him about my photography hopes and he told me how PRWeb could help meet my needs.
A week or so later, I started the process to announce my first ever photographic exhibit. I was concerned, I was nervous, I was scared, I didn't know how to do it. Mario showed me how. I can only speculate how many hundreds or thousands of folks Mario helped.
I was able to input the wording but the photographic images didn't nake sense to me, and Mario walked me step by step. The press release went around the world, and on the second day, my story on Annapolis Maryland was second only to a New York Times article. That's powerful!
Here's just one of the hundreds of sites where my press release showed up:

Now Mario isn't there. It's not possible, but done. Life Sucks!
