Sad News - Our Friend @PGH_RAM Has Passed Away

[synodog]

Oh man, this is rough to hear. I was his secret Santa last year and for this year’s run up, wondered why we hadn’t heard from him in a while. Tend that fire well brother.

Wow. Only 48. So sad. RIP.

[Oak Smoke]

Very sad indeed. My deepest condolences to his family and close friends.

Dang, gone too soon. I've had some great interactions with Rich here in the Pit. He was a genuinely good fellow.

[Lynn Dollar]

RIP ........... 48 yo is way too young.

[Spinaker]

This breaks my heart. Even though I only knew him for a short time, he really made an impact in The Pitmaster Club. He was so funny, welcoming and I loved his relationship with his bull dog.

48 is way too young, just a shame.

RIP our friend.

Because there is less than ten days between his last post and his passing, I think it must have been something sudden. Sudden deaths are difficult to deal with, so let’s support his family our prayers and thoughts.

Yep, that crossed my mind, too.

I did a Facebook name search. It he died suddenly on the 12th. He was a moderator on the Weber Kettles Fans group.

So very sad to hear this. Our deepest condolences to his family.

My heart goes out to his family and friends.

[Sid P]

I’m so sad about this. He was a great guy that had mentioned last spring that he’d just started work on a Master’s degree. It’s so fitting that cooking is mentioned in his obituary, as that’s what brings us all here.

RIP my friend, and Godspeed. My condolences to his family and friends.

[Jerod Broussard]

Overcoming many obstacles to even get to a point to work on that Master's.

[Uncle Bob]

He had a good sense of humor, he'll be missed.

[LegoMySearwood]

This is too sad. My condolences to the family.
