A bad time to be losing a good Capitalist when the bad ones are trying to take over the world.

My condolences to his family.

I think he would be proud of how he went out in a strange kind of way. He went out doing what he was obviously born to do. It beats dying on a toilet like Elvis did. Now that is sad.

Sad Story indeed. Not to self: if I become wealthy, hire someone to go up on the roof.

Now, this is a sad story. It shows one, that even tho he was a high school dropout, he made something of himself. My respects and prayers to his family.

...........

Those are exactly my sentiments as well.

But it is truly sad that it had to happen to a businessman who cared for his community and country as much as he did for his own family.
