I just received a phone call from Andy (IRNSTORM) who told me of the passing of the original Sick Puppie (and later founder of the AttackPack)....Sonnyten.  Andy and Tim (FANG) are both heading to Florida at this time to say there final goodbyes to thier father, whom they loved as much as life itself.  My thoughts and prayers are with them and thier family in this terrible time of loss. 

Sonny was always a true gentleman, a great conversationalist and one of the toughest old birds I had ever had the pleasure of talking with.  He fought long and hard against father time, lasting many more rounds than most.  I truly regret never having met him outside the game and I respected him more than I could ever put into words.   

I will always remember the way the Pups would buzz when he would show up on the game.  He was always the center of the action and the low level lanc guru.  Man, did we have some goooooood times back then.   

I will miss SonnyTen, as will all those who had the pleasure of knowing him.

I'm always right, it just takes some poepl longer to come to that realization than others.
