This morning we lost a great and kind man to leukemia. Cy Gantt retired from Dupont back in the eighties and spent the remainder of his life as an unpaid volunteer for the IICRC and the carpet cleaning industry.
For those that didn't get a chance to meet Cy, he was one of the most upbeat and genuinely caring people I have ever met. When he teamed up with another ex Duponter, Bill Doan, they were a dynamic duo that could replace any super heroes.
Cy was in the final stages of leukemia at this past Connections. He had to sit in a wheelchair but still was manning the IICRC booth. The everpresent smile was as big as ever. When he was brought on stage at the Connections dinner I have never seen such a prolonged and boisterous standing ovation for one person.
Today please remember Cy in your prayers.
