And the voice was silent

I’m sure that you were as shocked as I was when hearing about his death.

He was someone that influenced the very fabric of our lives. An iconic voice that radiated like no other.

When I heard the news I stood there, with my head down, staring at my hardwood floors wondering if life was ever going to be the same.

Now lately when I turn on the television it seems I am constantly reminded of the void in our lives. His personality was larger than life, and his enthusiasm could truly hook you.

I just want to take a moment and remember the man.

So long Billy Mays, my laundry, my floors, my walls will never be the same.
