Couldn't have said any better

a good guy I could call a friend, gone entirely too soon ...

RIP sir
 
I remember him, hadn't seen him in at least 25 years, I'd say. Very good player. RIP.
 
I met him in the early 2000s on the Joss Tour. We shared a few laughs and pool tales. He was fun to be around. May he rest in peace.
