Gents,

We've lost another one of our Grogs.

Per reports online, Richie61 lost his battle with cancer and just passed away.  :'(


Some of you have seen this elsewhere in the forums, but we wanted to start our own thread for it, too.

Feel free to share those happier memories of Richie

RIP.  May God have mercy on his soul and welcome him into Heaven.

So sorry to hear this. My heartfelt prayers and sympathy go out to his family during this time of pain. The man sure did some bodacious add-ons for the John Tiller games was it? The graphics of the weapons and troops I seem to remember? Heaven got a good and very talented man today.  :notworthy:

Very sad news to hear.

I wish his family strength to deal with their loss.

It is especially hard to read in the message that he had to endure excruciating pain during the bigger part of his last six months.

One less Grog :(.  May he rest in peace.
