On Friday, I learned of the passing of a friend. Mark Nichols, known to many as “Shoestring Hobo,” was a kind and gentle soul and a friend that we all loved. After a public search for over a week, our hearts were broken to learn that he had, sadly, passed from this realm. - This evening I took some time by the rails to remember Mark at a place where I watched so many of his videos while waiting on the next train. Mark was a friend that touched so many, including myself. I’ll miss him.
My deepest sympathy goes out to Mark's family and close friends.
