Retro Red, our friend Craig, has passed

[TheKiltedCoder]

I'd clicked on the link from this story from an RSS aggregator, which shortened the title to just "Retro Red..". I'd clicked on the link fully expecting to see that he'd been released from the hospital.

Wow.

I'd just like to add my prayers to those that have already been sent. The first official kilted outing that I ever attended was in his honor when he came up to Chicago.

He will be deeply missed, and we'll have to raise a single malt for him.

My most sincere and heartfelt condolences to his family and friends.

Good bye my friend. We never met, but I enjoyed your company still.

I wish peace, comfort and strength to his family.

My thoughts and prayers are with his family.
Red will be deeply missed.
I always enjoyed his posts and wit.

Retro Red,
We are better off for knowing you... May you shine in the light of the Creator... My prayers are with the family, during these times...

It's said a man's wealth is measured by the way his name flows off the lips of others.. Craig was a very wealthy man.

Rest in peace, Craig.

Frank, your photo tribute with the pix of Retro is quite touching. You are indeed a good friend.

My sympathies to the family.

May Craig rest in peace. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family. Here's a picture from our kilt night with Craig in Chicago a year ago in July. We were privileged to have his company for a kilt night last month. But I don't have pictures - they were taken with HIS camera. We will miss him.

unbelievable.

My thoughts are with Craig's family.

May light perpetual shine upon him.

As Burns said in The Cotter's Saturday Night:

Princes and lords are but the breath of kings,
An honest man's the noblest work of God.

Godspeed, Craig.
