If a person stays at any job long enough, some day they will experience the death of coworkers. Some people experience this sad phenomenon sooner than others. Some of us experience this in waves, when within a short period of time, a few of our predecessors die.
In 2001 we reported with sadness the death of former News editor Gordon Duffy. Early this year we heard of the death of former senior managing editor Jack Sweet.
Jack died December 23, 2002 at age 88. He was with Business News Publishing Company for 54 years, starting as a cub reporter in the early 1940s.
