Jack Fair was an eccentric, to say the least. However, even though I =
was a complete stranger, he opened his home to me. He gave me shade =
when I was hot, water when I was thirsty, and even a comfortable couch =
for a few hours when my back was hurting. That is more than many of my =
own family members have ever done. I doubt that it is a coincidence =
that his life didn't end until all the thru-hikers for the year had gone =
through. To use a Fair-ism, there are no winners, Jack. There is only =
time and space on the planet. Rest in peace. We'll miss you.
