Sad news indeed, regardless of where you post Glaken was a good guy who demonstrated a lot of class. ALL of us here should send our well wishes to a fellow gambler, poster, and overall good guy.
Very sorry to hear this! I met him at the last bash and the guy looked like a million bucks! Just goes to show us not to take life OR HEALTH for granted
I had no idea that the issue he was fighting was his own personal health
This comes as a complete suprise. Glaker was a real nice guy who just loved to gab. It's real hard to believe someone so nice and willing to help others would have this happen to him at just 43.
Thanks for the wel lwishes guys.. I talked with him almost daily for most of the last year... Glaken was as genuine as it got..... He spoke Highly of All the Mods here and Many of the posters. He Had Lots of respect for you Wil and said he would never want the job you have to do. He always wanted to do what was right and would give you the shirt off his back.
Anyways... This is not just a sad day across the street, and for Myself, Pete and Ken...as we all became very close to this man...but the posting world in general... Not many people can say they didn't have any enemies and he was one.... Hell JJGold couldn't even say anything bad about him...LOL
He was the first Mod in any forum I got to know well enough to private EMAIL and chat about stuff from time to time. His love of Tennis hits home as that was the only sport I excelled at. Im feeling very sad about this news today, hollow feeling inside.
