Passing away of a fellow board member

Post by buck »

Guy's today I received a heartbreaking phone call. Our fellow board member Nick McKinney passed away sudden this morning. His wife called and told me around 5pm. I was short on questions because she was very upset. I will be talking to her again sometime soon and will post any arrangement information. May he rest in peace.

That's terrible news. Rest in peace, Nick. He was a real asset to the board, for his valuable input and willingness to help others.

Should also mention, he had a good sense of humour and the ability to offer a reality check on occasion.

It's said Nick was battling a terminal illness for a long time. Never would have guessed. He will be missed.

My condolences to Nick's family. Though I only knew Nick through this forum I thought of him like a friend. At least some of his ideas and suggestions will live on by being posted on SpeedTalk. He will be missed!
