Moderator Raptoryfn660r Passed Away
It is with a deeply saddened heart that I share with you today the news that moderator and friend Raptoryfn660r (Neil B.) passed away last week. I received the sad news yesterday during a phone call from Neil's wife, Debbie. Neil was in good health and otherwise fine up until he went into coronary arrest.
Many of you got to know Neil over the years. He was a friend to everyone and always there trying to help people. He was truly one of the best among us.
I could not have run ATV Connection all those years without Neil. He loved watching over this forum and helping people.
Godspeed, Neil. You will be missed.

Awwwee man, that really hurts my heart to hear that.
I really enjoyed chatting and joking with Raptory. I really don't know what to say, Prayers go out to the family.
We need to get something going on in memory of him.

Prayers go out to Neils family, and to the members here who came to know him over the years.
His contributions and his humor will truly be missed.
Thank you Neil, for all the help and patience you showed me over the years.
Rest in peace my friend.

Oh no...no.....no! Raptory was one of my friends here and I very much enjoyed talking with him. He will be greatly missed and my thoughts and prayers go out to his family. There just aren't many people in this world like him, he truly is one of a kind. My heart and soul are very much sad with this news.
