Those We Have Lost In 2014

[Kickin' Chicken]

2014 seems to have been especially cruel to the pool world with the passing of some legends and good friends.

A non az member and good friend of mine, Red-Headed Frankie Davidson passed last month at just 40 years old. I posted about that a few weeks ago.

My (and many others) dear az buddy, Kevin Brewer, also departed this life leaving quite a void.

And the very unexpected loss of HOF legend, Freddy The Beard, hit us very hard.

May they all rest in peace.

These guys will be sorely missed. :frown:

Please feel free to post your thoughts on them and any others we have lost this year.

best,

My best friend, Mitul Bhakta, passed away this year. He was maybe 23 years old, perfectly healthy and had a random seizure while playing basketball. He wasn't the greatest pool player, but he had a natural talent at the game, an easy smile, and was a great person to hang out with. His life's philosophy was based on spreading kindness and love. With that, I wish you all a Merry Christmas and hope you all find time to spend with the ones that you are close to. Maybe even make some new friends in the new year!

Cheers, Ian
