Unhappy RIP Craig Cope, fellow Rennlister

Hey y'all, some of you may remember that one of us (Craig) was diagnosed with lung cancer last summer (https://rennlist.com/forums/997-forum/287220-i-need-your-prayers.html). I'm wondering if anybody knows if his treatment worked out? I'm somewhat reluctant to send a PM (he hasn't posted on Rennlist since November anyway).

Yea, PM the guy and let us know? He was keeping in such close touch for a while I'm surprised he disappeared unless it was for a good reason.

He won't get the PM unless he logs in here, and the last time was about 4 months ago.

Wolfgang, just send him an email instead, which will get sent directly to his personal email account which he hopefully accesses more frequently.

Ben, I just did that. I didn't know you could do it. Thanks for pointing it out.

Another thing that we somehow lost along the way is your 'Head Waiter' avatar. What happened to that thing?

It's in storage.

Hmmm, are you trying to tell us something, Wolfgang?

It's not like he was here all the time. His last post was in November and his last login in Feb. He posted like once every 10 days or so. It's not necessarily a bad sign, but I hear what you're sayin'. Hopefully he's doing okay and has better things to do with his renewed life than to spend it in front of a computer monitor.

No, no developments of that kind. I'm going to follow your example: building a new house before getting the TT. That should keep me busy throughout 2008.

as a physician, I can tell you that this disease has a very bad prognosis, usually measured in months, not years, I hope he is the exception and is doing well, but this is a bad disease.

If any of you still smoke, please stop!

Sadly, I just received the following email:

Hi,

This is Craig's girlfriend -- he passed away on February 18th of this year.
Our son and I miss him very much.

Thank you for thinking of him.
