Who was Don Shaw?

I only know a few guys here on SB and they are all plug builders so I figured I'd ask here. I see a tribute on the main page to Don Shaw. He looks very familiar. Who is he? Thanks.

Don was a fellow plug builder here and one helluva good guy.
His board name is gonefishin
He has been to plugfests going way back

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Thanks for the replies. I am sure I must have met Don somewhere over the past 11 or 12 years. I am sorry for the loss of another fine gentleman.
