We Remember

Jon was unique

My mentor Jon Newman. I went to his memorial service and I remember it well, but I was waiting for the insurance to operate on my back and I was high as a kite most days and I do not recall the day he died. He last posted here 08/04 2013 as Octopus. He gave me a milling machine before he died, I used it the other day, wish he had it back and we could go shoot.

He was very kind to me the few years I knew him. He called me the day before he died, as I recall, to see how I was doing. It was in August I think, which is what you posted.

We should try to have lunch one day next winter.

With so many of our benchrest friends and acquaintances having "left the range," I thought it would be nice to have a somewhat comprehensive list of them. Feel free to post name(s), year(s) of death, and age at death of your benchrest friends and acquaintances who have "left the range"; I'll add them to a "master" list below -- that way there will be one "comprehensive" list.

I think the list below reflects all the above additions (as corrected). Can any of you provide the year of death and/or age at death (or enough info so I can find an obit) for those that do not show those details? Also, feel free to correct (or confirm) the spelling of those names below followed by "(sp?)."
