Popular Post Waspie_Dwarf Posted January 15, 2013 Popular Post #1 Share Posted January 15, 2013 (edited) It is with a heavy heart that I have to report that long time UM member MID passed away on Monday 7th January. He died peacefully, surrounded by his family. Through this site, even though we were separated by the Atlantic Ocean, I became friends with him. I will miss him. I am sure I speak for the whole UM community when I say that our thoughts are with his family at this sad time.

Popular Post Lilly Posted January 15, 2013 Popular Post #3 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Another one??? What's going on The natural order of life is what's going on. Live each day as if it were your last. Always forgive your friends and family for life's minor disagreements. Be grateful for everyone you have, we are each others greatest gifts. I will miss MID more than I can express with mere words. 29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+DieChecker Posted January 15, 2013 #18 Share Posted January 15, 2013 (edited) I didn't even know he was sick. Read a bunch of his posts just the other day. Very, very sad. He always had an intelligent thing to talk about. So many "old timers" around here signing off. Edited January 15, 2013 by DieChecker 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post The Silver Thong Posted January 15, 2013 Popular Post #19 Share Posted January 15, 2013 He often set me streight when I was fooled into crazy CT theories. Years ago I was convinced the moon landing was a CT and through many posts and debates he proved to me what was the truth and I will thank him always for taking the time to do so. Smart funny and cranky at time lol. He will be missed big time. 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
