I never met **Padeye,** but I read his posts often enough that I feel I knew him well. I will surely miss him. He was a warm, witty man. ---

I really liked Padeye. He even offered to take me shooting on more than one occasion, but I never was able to meet him despite all my trips to Phoenix. It seems like I just remembered him telling me about it and I can’t believe he’s gone so soon. I’m so very sorry to learn about this today. ☹ [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/sdmbs-padeye-has-passed-away/340786.md?page=6) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/sdmbs-padeye-has-passed-away/340786.md?page=8)
