    A heavy hearted RIP.

    At least we now have one of our own up there pulling for the Steelers. Maybe he's our connection and can work some collective solutions to this problems with a higher power....

    I believe he was 55. He had kids and grandkids, I'm not sure if he was married.
    Sure thing. I'll sticky this for the rest of the month.
    I think that's a great idea. We'll do that.
    He was last online on the evening of the 20th (EST). I plan to leave his account as is. :smiley1:
    Hey, congratulations!

    RIP VaSteel!!!! I'll lift your family up in Prayers!

    TTF- Thanks for letting us know and for deciding to name the pick'm threads after him. Not sure how the logistics will work but I know you'll figure it out.

    Someone mentioned the great job John did on the pickem. I came to the board one day and had a big warning I had a PM. VA aka John, let me know I forgot to list my points for the tie breaker. He did love the Steelers and this group of people on this board.
    Someone said before we will all get the post one day we have posted our last. Sadly it is the way of the world. We do know John has zero pain now. We will all miss him.
