Wow, sad news. Thanks for the notice John. I had the pleasure of talking with him many times and once at the MSBA show in Braintree at the old Armory I casually asked him if I could buy a couple of his plugs. He told me "no,but come out to the jeep with me for a second". We got out there and in the back he had boxes of his homemade plugs and he reached in and handed me a bunch and said, "here try these, they work for me pretty well".
I never got a jointed giant swimmer of his and was hoping he would come around and be able to make a few more. Now he is with all the other old guard on a new beach, God rest his soul.
