Yes, yes it is. I've been trying to work through my personal existential crisis for the last 3 weeks or so. I haven't had any breakthroughs. :-(

It's really dawned on me recently that I will die someday as will my parents and other loved ones. It's...disturbing to put it mildly and I don't know how to come to terms with the eventuality. I just don't.

My sincere condolences to his family.

Give it a few months. It will dawn on you.

You'd think they could omit the "Send Flowers" button.

Check on its way.

The weird thing, if ECM hadn't had a chance connection, would we have ever known what happened?

Yeah...there have been a lot of folks in different forums I visit that just stop posting...I always wonder if they left, or if they "left"...

I am dragging this up from the past but I just found out about this in the "Serviceable BMW thread". He and I had communicated back and forth a bunch about stuff German car related over the last couple years. I had loaned him some specialty tools I have for some projects he was working on and what not. In fact I think he must have returned them to me shortly before he passed. I sent him an email saying that I had got them back but I never heard a thing from him again.

I am so very sad to here this. He was a great guy!!!!! You will be missed Scott

If only there were a way to bring back the actual person as easily as it is to resurrect a post about them....

I hope his family is doing ok.

Equally disturbing is the number of other members posted in this thread that are no longer with us. RIP
