I met Alain Sylvain only once. We recorded a podcast at the very end of October in 2018. 

I remembered it long after, and looking back, was conscious that my own thinking evolved as a result of our conversation.

The news of his tragic death last month has had a profound impact on many people I know.

I debated whether it was helpful or not to reload this conversation. 

After listening to it again, I hope that it will let those of you that knew him well, add to your memory of him.

And for those of us that didn’t, I hope it will help know him a little better.

Life is short. I have come to believe that at the end, we can hope for three things. To be remembered. To have made a difference. And to be loved.

I am grateful to have met him even briefly.

I am sorry beyond words for the sorrow and the loss that his departure leaves behind for his family and those that knew him and loved him.
