Back in 2022 after a loooooong break from 2010. Old name Ratpack, same for the BBS.

Squad I did the most tours with were the Excaliburs then The 172nd Rabid Dogs. Still trying to talk Illigaf, Coola, Oldman22, and Joecrow into coming back instead of being boring old farts!

He was a magnificent guy, always friendly, always willing to teach just about anything (his signature:  "Hope this helps").  He remembered you by name and what you last talked about.

But he was in a lot of pain, a lot, and he had to power through it.  Now he isn't. 

Hope that helps.

His youngest just posted on Facebook that TC passed away early this morning.  I told her I would forward the information to this board. 
More and more of us “old timers” are passing with more frequency.

I'm looking at his facebook and only two AH guys and Damned Ben have said anything about him passing.

TC himself posted yesterday.

The earliest information I have on TC passing came from Cularo who posted on another facebook group that he got a message from some that TC had passed this morning (9/4).

Damned Renegade, Myself, and Several Others have tried calling TC. Many of us have heard from him directly as recent as last week. Unfortunately His phone is dead and he has not set up his voice mailbox yet.

While it is not looking good, I hope it's not true, and this is just a misunderstanding.

Personally I'm gonna keep praying to God that my friend is still alive and with us. 

:pray

Can't remember flying with or against him but here on the forums he was a great tech contributor. RIP  :salute

Hey Mayhem,
This is Lindsey his daughter who made the post on facebook. I figured I'd sign up to reply. Couldn't think of a more unique name but... oh well on that.
I recognize yours and Renegade's (as well as some others) names from hearing about you from my Dad in the past.

Unfortunately my father has passed away at around 2am on September 4th.
I appreciate all the  :salute kind words and am happy seeing he had a community he had such an impact on.
As a 'gamer' myself, I know I'd want my online buddies to know. So I posted to that Facebook page.

I really don't know what else to say.
Thank you all for your kind words.
