I only stumbled across the announcement a few days ago...

He is no longer in the pain that plagued him, he is again with his beloved son, Danny.

Though the stars of our universe are much dimmer now, on the other side they burn so bright...

Farewell for now my friend. I'll see you on the other side someday.:salute:

Ahhh Maaan.....This is a shock, to say the least.! I can't say I knew him well, but he favorited a fair number of my pieces and he liked my Emergency! truck pics quite a bit. We chatted back and forth a few times. I considered him one of my DA fans and and a friend. I knew he was going through difficult times, but I never knew exactly what. For what I talked with him, he was a great guy! I always looked forward to chatting with him, and he often was among the first to fave my latest offerings. Here, I just figured he got busy, as I have been and hadn't had a chance to fave or comment in a bit.

Shoot. My sympathies go out to him and his family. Believe it or not, he IS missed! You're tribute to him here is grand, wonderful, and appropriate. Though many of us others missed his passing, thank you for sending him off well, and for sharing the link as to what happened to him.

Oh my God, he died?!

Okay, now I am crying. He was my mentor, he taught me all the basics of 3D. And he was a friend. I will miss him deeply.

Ditto. I was going to note you and see if you had heard anything from him, as I hadn't lately. I will say he is in good company. So many, and this one hits too close to home.

Now I am going to go take a few minutes and have a good cry.
