This is sad news, he was certainly a great guy to deal with,and a great artist. His work on the Harley Q was a masterpiece.

Very sorry to hear of his passing.

He was one of the few kit producers that was close to MA that I would buy from.

<g> We use to kid him that we didn't hold living in RI against him and
he'd reply, "Hey! Least I ain't from Hoboken!!"

Still sad about this. Members have come and gone, but I've often wondered how it would feel to actually loose one. :(
