It's with a heavy heart I post this. Harry, Black Dog has past away. I talked to his wife today. She is going to send me his obituary. When I get it, I will post it. Damn it all to hell. He was someone I really wanted to meet. We talked on the phone and you could tell he was somebody who cared. I'm going to miss him!
Harry and I rarely saw eye to eye but there were few people on this forum with more charisma. I, personally, appreciate his stance on animal welfare - and I am going to make a donation in his name (or at least his ET name) to our local animal shelter. RIP Harry. I wish the best for your family and pet(s).

Thanks Backstay.

It says he died in the hospital. I wonder if he was in there for his sinuses again?

Man, I'm really going to miss that guy. He was infectious.

Rich died from a massive stroke. I'm going to miss him more than I can say. He was just a pup, 9 months younger than me. We talked on the phone, he had that accent that was right out of the movies. His wife was trying to get Apple to unlock his computer so she could tell us, but no go. She knew who I was, said he talked about me and talked about the forum a lot. It was important to him, you all were important to him. The people that disagreed with him he defended when we would discuss the different threads. He really did care.

Good bye my friend!

Harry will be missed!

He was just as great a guy on the phone as he was here. He might have tried to get a rise out of people, but he would have turned right around and helped them out too.

He will be greatly missed, I wish all the best for his family not only now but for the future days they will miss is voice, sarcasm and love!

Harry was the heart and soul of this forum and we are all better for having known him, if only in these pages. We've had our spats but his discernible good nature and love for his fellow man always shone through. He was a man of principle and I respected him. I take solace in the fact he's received his reward and his work is done. Go in peace tradesman
