SWOnyx was a regular Friday Night Volunteer with my squadron in FSO.

He told us he and his wife had both been diagnosed with Cancer this year. I personally met him a few years ago at Messa's Birthday party in Philly along with several other Aces High Friends.

He will be missed immensely. <S>

Wow I'm super sorry to hear this.  He was a really nice guy, loved flying with him in 412th FSO.
 I was really hoping for a better outcome for him.  :frown:

Dam I also met Onyx at Dan's birthday and when I was working in the area he lived in he would come to my station and we would talk Aces High and shoot the crap.
Another Great Player loss  :cry

The many weekend nights I got to fly with Onyx in the Spartan Warriors were some of the best Aces High experiences I could have asked for. He taught me much about AH, and he made me laugh. Sad to see him go.  :salute

Was so sorry to hear this. We'd flown in FSO for some time. Great guy. I know he'd been battling this and I'd hoped he'd turned a corner on it. RIP.

Nefarious, I will post your announcement in our forms so as to notify all 125th members.  Unfortunately, I'll not be able to join due to my rig being down.  I'll be there in heart and mind.  I'd be grateful if someone would record memorial and send to me so as I am able to post into our forums.

I'm sure there will be a film or two.

The plan will be a SBD-5 Carrier Fly over. Onyx once told us that his uncle flew them in WW2, so I figure we'll honor both their memories. <S>
