Title: Beefcake has passed...
Post by: Vudu15 on June 11, 2021, 06:09:37 PM
I am sad to inform all of you wonderful guys and gals from battles and years past that Beefcake passed away February 17,2021. I didn't get any info as to what caused it but he had had a stroke sometime back and was in some kind of assisted living out of home situation. I was able to get him on Discord several times throughout 2020 but he dropped off round late 2020 and I'm not sure how his situation went from then on. I did, through some investigation find him online and left some kind words for friends and others.

One of the videos I had of just him and me doing a horrible job trying to shoot down a lone KI67 well really just me....

What a bummer. We were squadies the first few years of aces high. He was just a teenager, we used to tease him. Played a couple other multiplayer games with him back in the day. He always made things more fun.

Sad to hear. Beefcake and I started around the same time way back when. I heard he was 16 and thought wow no squeaker here, the kid had it together.

That sucks.  A very nice guy and a joy to fly with.  I will miss him.

Fair winds and blue skies, Beefcake, my friend.

Beef joined myself and some other friends on Arma numerous times over the last few years, he even talked us into a 4 player game of farm sim, of all things.  And yeah, he named it TIMMEH's Farm.  Ya just couldnt suppress Beef's sense of humour.

He disappeared on us about 18 months ago.  We figured he'd had some sort of complication from the stroke but hoped he'd be back.

 :salute Beef.  miss ya buddy.

That's too bad, I remember doing a lot of bomber missions with him.  I'd climb and try to avoid the fighters....he'd fly down on the deck straight at them, guns blazing.
