Today at 10 am is the funeral for \u201cMack\u201d Brady, son of well-known scholar and biblioblogger Christian Brady. Bob Cargill<\/a> and Steve Caruso<\/a> have already shared tributes, as well as information on the funeral arrangements and a scholarship fund that has been set up in Mack\u2019s memory<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Joel Watts suggested that we have a period of silence<\/a> on our blogs, especially at 10 am as the funeral begins. That seems fitting.<\/p>\n

Being at a loss for words, I will simply direct you to the sites above, and also to Christian\u2019s own blog posts on his blog Targuman about the death of his young son<\/a> and the small measure of comfort provided in times like these by communities<\/a>, including those mediated through technology.<\/p>\n

And I ask that we all take a few minutes to pause from blogging and commenting here at 10 am, and in silence join with the Brady family as they mourn.<\/p>\n
