 i just heard back from a letter i had sent to RR1980's address:

Dear Jenny,
 
I am Arnold's sister, received your letter yesterday.
 
I am sorry to let you know that my brother passed away last February of Heart Failure.
 
As you are his friend, I know this news will be a shock to you as you worried him for this long time.
 
Sorry that since we don't know his friends so we are not able to let you know when this happen.
 
I don't know what to say, I am glad to receive your letter and know that my brother have a friend that care about him.
 
Please Take Care.
 
Best Regards,
 
Wai Ka

i always thought RR1980 was gonna log back on so i never thought of sending the letter sooner to see what happened till we spoke about him in chat last week. i still have one of his repair orders.
till next time RR1  *lays a flower in chat*

I talked to RR regularly in the chat but after he came back to the US and broke his ankle and never came back I was afraid something like this happened. I even sent him some pms to see how he was doing. He was a great guy, very friendly and I really enjoyed talking to him.

Didn't know him well, but I was gone for a bit, although I know I've chatted with him a few times in the past. Sorry to hear this. Condolences guys, you got them.
END OF LINE.

He mostly came into the chat in the later evening but I did have a few interactions with him. It's sad to hear another member passed away.
