Oh no! I am shocked and deeply saddened to hear this news. I always found his comments to be balanced and insightful. He will be missed.
Wishing his family strength in this difficult time
This is so sad to read. Thank you for letting us know. He will be missed.
Iâm so sorry, condolences to his family and friends.
He was a truly kind and thoughtful person. So proud of his daughter!
This is incredibly sad!!
I was stunned, shocked, to hear the news as well. He was always so friendly and posted a ton of thought provoking articles and threads.
Iâll certainly miss him around here. Itâs crazy how life can be turned upside down for a family and a wonderful life lost.
Iâm still shaking my head with disbelief. RIP.
I am very sorry to hear about his passing. He was always very supportive of some of my direct views, so I appreciated his help.
So very sorry for his family. RIP.
May his memory be a blessing
While CC is confidential I will share one of Mynameâs most recent DMs with me regarding a recent trip near me. I think it shows his love of family, music and just being available. His words and apparent joy of being a dad now take on extra meeting and are a reminder to enjoy each day.
I suspect he wouldnât mind me sharing to convey that message.
âWe went to NYC the next day and saw âWickedâ, which was amazing, and spent most of our day there.
The next day, we went to Philadelphia, which I really liked. It is amazing how close both NYC and Philly are to my daughterâs school. (Edited for family privacy).
The next day was move-in day, and that was a bit chaotic as you can imagine, but we got everything to DDâs quad room, which she is sharing with three very nice young ladies. All of the parents and families had lunch together, and then we thought we would say our goodbyes to DD.
DDâs little sister missed her so much, we actually saw DD for the next three days! But DD didnât mind.
The last farewell was a bit anticlimactic, but DD loves being there. She says itâs been super-hot in her unairconditioned dorm, but she and her roommate (two bedrooms in the quad with a large partyâŚstrike that studyâŚarea) have fans. I think things are cooling off.â
This is simply horrible news!!
Devastating. My heart goes out to his family.
I am so sorryđ˘. Enjoyed his posts on a variety of topics, and hearing his happiness with family. Condolences to his family, and may he rest in peace.
This news makes me incredibly sad. May his memory be for a blessing.
Iâm so sorry for his family and friends. Rest in peace.
I canât believe it. Thoughts are with his family.
As hard as it was to bring this news to us, it allows to reflect and to share in our sadness.
Peace to his family.
So sad! They will be missed!
Feeling rather stunned at this news. Wishing his family peace and comfort as it goes through this difficult time.
Oh, no, no, no. Iâm so sorry to hear this. I appreciated his thoughtful perspective on so many topics and enjoyed reading whatever he chose to share. He will be missed! I pray his family will be comforted during this time of unexpected loss.
