    Very sorry for the loss. I was remember a conversation ARPA and I had a few years ago just the other day.
    Beware of advice given by some guy on the Internet.

    I just noticed the General Discussion Forums of this site have been renamed "The ARPA Zone/General Discussion Forums".

    Very cool.

    The least we could do for someone that helped make the site what it is.

    Way too young. My brother in laws twin died from that when he was in his 50's.
    Had a complete check up a few days before too.
    No one saw it coming.

    Out of curiosity, was he a smoker? I noticed he was a big guy, did he have any health issues like high blood pressure or anything that you know about? Just wondering if that type of aneurysm is hereditary or what. It's a very sad story, seems he had a huge ship to sail with that company.

    Very saddened,
    I met him once when he was out here in Yuma AZ.
    Very good man,
    Will be truly missed.
    My best wished to his family and co-workers.

    Bruce was a smoker. When he had kidney stones last year and the Doc's found his two aneurysms he quit. He had also lost weight and tried to reduce his stress level as they requested. I have no knowledge of his family's history.

    Yes, he did have a lot on his shoulders with ARPA. He also had his own HVAC business to attend as well as his Admin duties here while traveling to Afghanistan and Haiti recently and was preparing for a trip to Spain as well.

    Our prayers for his family and others left behind.

    This site and many other people have lost a very good man.

    Having a beer and thinking about our friend. Cheers.
    Perhaps you should have read the instructions before calling.
