A forum member passed away on 4/12

On tuesday honglo died in his sleep at the age of 51. The cause was unknown as of me hearing about it thursday.

honglo had some crazy ideas, but he was good people and made you really have to think about things. He was the only really active poster that I knew out in the field, and was the one that told me about this site.

I'll miss him.

Any time a family member dies, it is a hard thing for the family. In this case it is made worse because he had no life insurance to protect his family.

Please, if you have a family, and don't have life insurance, get it ASAP, regardless of your age.

If you smoke, stop now!

We are really sorry to hear that Mark. But, thanks for informing us.

I recall some of his posts and the so called conversations we had here at the forum. I miss him already.

Wow. I looked it up and he last posted several times on the 9th and now he's gone. Everyone please focus on what's important; your loved ones. Don't put it off another day, tell your wife and kids you love them and call your mom. Mark, write his family a note telling them about your admiration for him. It will only take a few minutes of your time and will mean much to them.

Kids are asleep....just checked on them and gave them a kiss.

Thanks for letting us know Mark.

Very sorry to hear that. I was surprised to read this.

My condolences to his family.

WOW! This sucks. I wasn't even aware he was ill. There has been some close calls here since I've been a member but not a member death.

A moment of silence is due.

There was no outward indication that he was "ill", he was his regular self on monday afternoon when I was killing time with him in at AC Supply between calls.
