That's awful and so young. Thoughts to his friends and family.I raise my kids, cook and golf. When work gets in the way I'm pissed, I'm pissed off 48 weeks a year.Inbetween Iowa and Colorado, not close to anything remotely entertaining outside of football season.

Wow, I'm very sorry to read that. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends.They don’t want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don’t want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They’re not interested in that. That doesn’t help them. That's against their interests. - George Carlin

Sorry to hear this brother. Sad news indeed. Wish his loved ones the very best.

Status- Standing by.
The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out. -

Chris and Will let a bunch of miscreants take over their property every year (aka Salado eggfest), so some of us have enjoyed his (their) hospitality. This is terrible news.
@Mickey - would it be possible to send a link to this page to his family and loved ones, so they know that many others are sending good vibes and prayers?#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX. -

That is horrible! Wow. My condolences to his family and friends.Just a hack that makes some $hitty BBQ....

I have never made it to Salado but do know that thru his efforts it was a high-point on the eggfest circuit. That doesn't happen by chance. And he clearly had a much larger community impact. Condolences and prayers to his family.Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

So sad, prayers of comfort for his family and friends.Wear maroon, live maroon, bleed maroon.
