David White has related that Don Rice passed yesterday evening.

Some that are familiar with Don may not get by SFI anymore, hence my mentioning it here. Whatever annexing and alienation may have gone on, I know some of the old crowd is here.
Cheers

I did not know him but our community is small so the passing of anyone makes it a bit smaller. It is sad news and likewise my thoughts and prayers are with the family.

It is indeed a sad day when a fellow forumite passes on.
In fact, I remember the moment I learned good ol' Don Nelson passed on almost as if it were yesterday. I still have a few of his PM's in my SFI inbox, as I haven't had the heart to delete them.
My thoughts and prayers are with Mr. Rice's family.

I have to agree with Randall as I also didn't know him but I also feel sadness for the loss of a kindred soul and Randall said it very well.
You can easily give up your freedom. You have to fight hard to get it back!
