> Real question if anyone knows: Someone mentioned Polycarp earlier in the thread. I used to LOVE reading Poly’s posts. Did he just stop? Does anyone know what happened with him?

I mostly recall because his name came up in another thread recently. He passed away in 2013; his wife posted about his passing, using his screenname, in this thread:

> Hi, everyone. This is “Mrs. Carp” (Polycarp’s wife).I thought some of those he was close to might like to know, he passed away at WakeMed Hospital at 5:50 (est)this evening after a prolonged, unknown illness. He was taken to t he emergency room at approximately 7:45 Sunday evening and never regained consciousness. They put him on life support, and at my request, pulled the plug at 3:15 this afternoon. If anyone would like more information we are listed under David Wilbur in Zebulon, NC.
