Tis My Sad Duty.......

cdrsubron7 · 02-07-19, 03:24 AM

Tis my sad duty to announce the passing of a great friend and a contributor to SH4. He worked on FOTRSU for awhile and was the creator of TMO wtw (with training wheels). He had just had heart surgery and was recovering when he passed away two days ago very suddenly.

His handle here at Subsim was Florida Sailor, aka Dave Grayson. He was a good husband and he was a great man, I'm also happy to say that he was my friend.

RIP, Dave. You shall be sorely missed.

Sorry sir, but you are out of line and I have to call you on this one. This guy has done for FREE what we all paid UBI $50.00+ to do. Out of a sense of responsibility, well deserved pride, or the goodness of his heart he has given us a playable game that I am rapidly falling in love with. It is all due to his hard work and the sacirfice of his family time.

Ducimus can stay, go, whatever and we have no right to criticize his choices. Our chioce should be, and mine certainly is, is to thank him for his efforts and wish him well.

I RECALL FROM MY LURKING DAYS; HE WAS A STRAIGHTFORWARD VERY COOL HEAD IN A

HEATED DEBATE; HE WILL BE MISSED

Florida Sailor, may you have smooth seas and the wind at your back for your eternal patrol.

Wow cdrsubron7... sad. Prayers for the family. He is missed. Fair breeze and following seas...

He was a such a help for me when I first joined the Ubi community. Time sure does fly... RIP Dave

Rest in peace mate.

Sailor Steve · 02-08-19, 04:30 AM

I wasn't familiar with him at all, but he obviously influenced more than a few people here. I'm sorry for his passing, and those of you who knew him well have my best wishes.

torpedobait · 02-08-19, 04:49 AM

Rest in Peace, Sir.
