R.I.P.
One year three of my actual or former work colleagues died. Two just 'dropped dead' at work or on holiday without any warning, the third had, what he described as 'non-treatable bowel cancer'. As a consultant I have occasionally mentioned to clients that they need to have a plan for what happens if someone important is 'run over by a bus', but I've never suggested putting the SysAdmin password in an envelope to be delivered to someone at your funeral. Great, if somewhat macabre, forward thinking.
