if possible,,,it would be great to see some pictures of Raptory,,,whether it be riding or moderating,,,or whatever

I can't think of a more involved and selfless (not to mention detailed) individual who was more dedicated to a cause/website for so many years...

As the other mods/users know,,,Raptory was wise beyond his years and maintained a level of excellence that far exceeded any benchmark that could have ever been set...,,,he was/is the benchmark

His wisdom and dillagence helped/retained many members of this forum...and straightened out the ones who tried to abuse the forums

I am just glad to have so many thousands of posts to re-read,,perhaps his legacy

His great nature and helpful spirit will/has inspired so many.....

Forget all the sad stuff...I would like to see some pics of the reclusive fella riding the 'craptor',,,and hear from the other forum users how they met and how they were helped by 'raptory' (as so many of us know him)

He once mentioned family on a nearby island (lopez) to me,,,and i was always waiting for the phone to ring so we could meet up and go fishing with the local forum fisherman...

I am really sorry to hear of his passing! My prayers are with him and his family. I enjoyed his posts and replies and have learned a thing or two from him. I second the request of seeing some of his pics etc. really classy and knowledgeable individual who helped many of us!

He also, assisted me in tech support issues with the site as well as contributed to my threads! A great forum contributor! He will be missed!

In our thoughts and prayers,

-RTICKWAD-
