Vale Boyd, sarcastic bastard, king of snark and self-deprecation.
Vale Boyd, teacher, supporter, discreet achiever.
Vale Boyd, anchor of our little team, this family.
It took a bullet most thirty years to catch you, old chicken strangler.

Vale Boyd, colleague, friend and mentor.
Give them hell, Boydo. We miss you.
