This week, we lost a great friend and former Organic, Seth Palmer. Seth was a talented project manager from our New York office. He passed quietly in his sleep after a long battle with leukemia.
Anyone who met Seth could never forget him. He was larger than life - a classically trained musician, a student of psychology and an innovative and imaginative web guy. He worked with the web for over 10 years with Agency.com, Ogilvy Interactive, Viant and Organic. He was working for Comcast when he was diagnosed with Leukemia.
Seth was exceptionally courageous and blogged about his fight against this horrible disease.
This typified Seth. He wanted his friends and loved ones to know what was going on and he used the web as a way to stay in touch with his network. This made it easier for those of who could not travel down to see him in hospital in Philadelphia to show how much we cared for him and for us to see his courage. It gave us all courage and hope too.
Seth kept up the blog himself throughout most of his battle. When it became too tough, his mother carried it on for him. All of his friends and loved ones were devastated to hear the news on December 16th that no more could be done to save him and sadly he passed on Sunday December 23rd.
We will all miss you Seth.
