[EHK for Darwin]

Hello All,
My name is Chris Wilcox. My brother Tom was EHK for Darwin. I know many of you chatted with him on this site and may have been friends with him. Sadly he died suddenly on Saturday 4-July. The browser on his computer was left open to this site, however, I do not have his password and will never be able to log back into this. I wanted to share this with those of you who knew him. If anyone is interested in details about the wake and funeral you can email me at [email protected] I am sorry to have to share this sad news with all of you. He will be missed.

Sincerely,

Chris Wilcox

Jesus Christ. I just chatted with him for the first time a few days ago. Fuck. I don't even know what to say.

I'm going out for a fucking cigarette.

[Lord of Oop North]

I will definitely miss him :(

Gonna have a cigar and a unibroue, in his honour.  :smoking: :(

Never was a smoker, but I will, with great sadness, raise a glass to him tonight.  Very sad. :(

Man.  Man!  Motherfucker. =(

[Stubby]

Damn.  So sorry for your loss Chris.  Thanks for letting us know.

[Brude]

Yeah, that's just about the worst news I've had in a very long time.

He was one of the very best of us.

[WarGalley]

Holy fuck.

I don't think I've ever been this shocked by the death of someone I've never met. Wish I could have met the man. No one can and ever will rant like EHK. My condolences to your family, Chris.

RIP EHK.

Tragic, shocking news. I'm just stunned right now.

[Whiskeyjack]

Wow.  Thats awful.

Chris, I'm very sorry for your loss.

Words seem so empty.

EHK is ...dead?

EHK was one of the few people from the Board I met in person, nearly 5 years ago. We and a few others met for a pizza dinner in Chicago and went to a riverboat casino afterwards where he was kind enough to teach me the rules of Texas hold 'em poker. He was exactly the same in person as would imagine from his posts, impassioned views on every topic. We didnt stay in touch afterwards much, but I would always read with interest his unique, passionate rants on subjects dear to his heart.

My condolences to his family on their loss. I still cant believe he is gone, so young.

Oh no...

Deepest condolences to the Wilcox family.  Know that he will also be missed around here for his intelligence and his passion.
