I am very sorry to read that another one of our Dopers has died! I hurt for his family and friend (s) because even though we never interacted here, I see that he was loved, was a huge part of their lives and a valued member of his community. **This** community is wonderful and I know all of us realize at a time like this, our time on the planet isn’t infinite. Sadly Bill ---

> [@Rick](#): > > I don’t know. I was wondering that myself. I will call his wife in a day or so to find out. Hi everyone! Thank you for your kind thoughts and words. My husband was truely a great man, His sons and I Love and miss him more than words can say. As to the cause of death; he died from enternal bleeding post motorcycle accident not from a heart attack. He was on his way home after meeting with a friend at the mall. My little guy had just asked me where his daddy was and that he wanted him home, because it was dark now and daddy is always home when its dark out, when I got the phone call from a man that was at the seen with Nic. Nic died on the way to the hospital. ☹ Nancy ---
