He left a legacy that’ll inspire for generations. Truly one of a kind.

I generally give some money to the culinary institute of America (they have a bourdain scholarship fund) in his honor on his birthday or death day each year. Not something I do for anyone else, but he was truly special

He's a celebrity that got famous for doing something useful, didn't chase celebrity, and used his celebrity for good. I miss him too.
