Sorry to hear he's gone, though I must admit I am surprised he lived this long! I would have figured his liver would have just walked out on him before now!

I hadn't heard of the recent surgeries, tough I personally always considered suicide a cop out, maybe beetlejuice had it right, and when I die, Hunte will be filing my application for something! Really sorry he's gone, I never got to drink with him.... though I doubt I could have come close to keeping up!

Sorry Hunter had to have 'gone over' but I guess I can sympathize that it's better to burn out.... you get the idea...... I'm still surprised his liver held out for as long as it did!
