It's hard to believe his last post was over six years ago. Anyone who joined our campfire here after February of '09 never had the pleasure of his company. He was a wise, generous, helpful, wonderful dude taken far too soon. Thanks for everything, OBG. *clink* -Blast, missing a friend

I was fortunate enough to be able to enjoy his company here for some years. So I´ll join the toast.

He was a great leader here. He was never controversial, always eager and usually quite helpful. His departure left a cloud over the forum that took a long time to get over. I still miss him and his humor and wisdom.
I offer a poignant clink.

Joining the toast. It is great to see his wisdom imprinted here forever, and a bit sad that the forum's search engine is incapable of reaching it by silly technical limitations.

Friendship comes at a price. Sometimes that price is a high one. When a friend is passes we mourn them, we grieve at loosing them but we are enriched for having them in our lives. Life goes on.

OBG passed before I came here but I have read many of his posts. His presence is still missed today.

Yeah OBG is truly missed. Time flies all too fast.
Its a reminder to appreciate the experience, wit, wisdom, humor, and opinions of all those who post here. Its a forum that could easily get, well, weird. While I know the forum sheriffs have a lot to do with it, I'd like to think OBG is helping out a bit and enjoying it.
