Hi- I just received an email that my friend, known here as Lawdog, passed away on January 12, 2006. Gary was a good and rightous man, and he will be missed. Gary was only 58.
May the good Lord give peace and rest to his immortal soul.
Respectfully,
Wendell

Unfortunately, I have no further info.....Gary and I would send each other emails about once per month or so....I sent one today, and got a reply from his daughter saying simply that he had passed away on January 12, 2006.....I didn't feel right inquiring further.....I am still in shock....while Gary and I never met face to face, we have been Internet friends for several years, going back to the Shooters days....man, I still just can't believe it....R.I.P........

Not the best of news. We'll miss him. 2005 has ben a "strange" year for me in many ways other than our losses here on BSB.

I'm really sorry to hear about Lawdog. He was one of the good guys here. Always seemed like an upstanding man and he held to his convictions. He will definitely be missed.

Fella's;
I too am sorry to hear of his passing. Kinda scary, I'm also 58. That's far too young to go. We'll miss him.
Godspeed, Lawdog.

When it rains it pours.
Lawdog was a most knowledgeable fellow when it came to guns. I enjoyed his input for a number of years since I've been here on BSB. I am very sad to see him go. I wish there was something we could do. Farewell and see you on the range above.

A loss for all here. Lawdog was not only respectful but his professional opinions expressed from time to time made a lot of common sense too. And common sense is at a real premium these days. RD

I didn't know the man, but I always respected his input. Like I was telling TikkaBuck, it's weird, you feel like you know someone, and then they are gone. I wish his friends and family the best, I think he was one of the good ones,,,,,,,,,,BH
