I hope Mr. Whittington's family gets a chance to know how he impacted the people in the pool world whom he came in contact with.
The pool world is kind of a closed community. While "we" know practically everything that is going on with one another, those outside of the pool world know relatively little about our microcosm.

R.I.P. Mr. Whittington.
It was an honor for me to have had you pass through my life. I am a better man for it.

JoeyA,
I spoke with his son on the phone earlier this morning for a few minutes. They are aware of the outpouring of sympathy regarding his passing & are most appreciative of it.
TF was the kind of rare person that radiated a genuine warmth. His love of religion & skill for pool were unquestionable. It was my honor & priviledge to have him in my circle of friends.
As I said in the other thread, I will miss those "wrassling" matches he & I used to engage in on the pool table. Those will remain some of my most cherished memories.
Edited to add: Here is the other thread link for TF's passing in case anyone missed it. http://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?t=147576
