Recieved a bit ago. Everyone pray or send good vibes to a brother in need. He attended last year's meet here in Lebanon and is a stand up guy.

Sorry to hear of this.


Hello Dane,

I have some bad news regarding a mafia member... Dave Richardson (just_george) has been having health issues recently and has been to the hospital a few times over the last few months... I haven't heard from him for about 3 weeks and he wasn't responding to messages and his phone was disconnected so I got a bit concerned and asked a friend to go over to his place to check, who was able to get his brother's number from a neighbor... Called up his brother and he said he's been in coma for the last 3 weeks and they don't expect him to recover...

Just thought I'd let you know... I'm praying he recovers but his brother said it's unlikely...

Sandeep

Prayers to him and his family. I spent some extra time with him at the last reunion and he was a great guy. Worked together with him on BPs sway bar end links. Wish the best for him and his family.

SHIT.
I really hope he recovers...

Any details on what caused the coma?

Not sure what caused the coma but he did tell me that he was having these events where he would lose consciousness and had to spend a few days in the hospital... He said it happened again last month so the doctors installed a heart monitor to figure out what was causing it... He also said he would be at his brothers place until he recovers and that was the last I heard from him...

Guys,

I'm really sad to tell you that George passed away on March 10th. Keep his family in your prayers and thoughts as it's been very difficult on all of them, as you can imagine.

Fair winds and following seas George. You were definitely a good dude and a class act.

Dave will surely be missed. I clicked so well with him last year and was really looking forward to seeing him again this year. I will forever keep the "Remove After Flight" tag he took off his keyring and gave to me - as a reminder of him.

He was a kind soul (and a good mechanic!). Glad I had the opportunity to meet him. Hopefully he's in a better place now. Praying for comfort and healing for his family.

News like this always brings to mind a passage near the end of the Bible that's given me great hope when family members have passed away...

Revelation 21:1–5
Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away... And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!”

Here's to hoping it's true, and that we'll have the mother-of-all zhpmafia reunions there (sans cars, I suppose, though it's possible we can make new ones - we'll have forever, after all, and the God of the Bible does seem to like creating stuff).

I've chosen to move this to the "General" subforum so his family can read the kind words we share regarding George.

I didn't have the pleasure of meeting him, but if he hung out with this group, he'll no doubt be missed greatly by family and friends. May he rest in peace. He and his family will be in our thoughts and prayers.
