This fine gentleman who contributed much to this forum has passed onto that wonderful reloading room in the sky!

[sukivel]

I’m familiar with many of his posts. Was he an older gentleman?

OMG, always enjoyed reading his post. Condolences to his family and friends.

[Bzcraig]

This completely catches me off guard! Was this a sudden event?

[smokeywolf]

Grumpa has been called home?

He was a fine old gentleman. I liked him very much. He contributed much to this forum. Had necking 32-20 down to 25-20 or 218 BEE down to a science.

I'll miss you Grumpa.

Prayers for his wife.

[Walks]

Hard News.
My Condolences to his Family.
I really enjoyed his posts, he had a GREAT DEAL OF INSIGHT into our pastime.

May his Alloy always be pure and his pours drop clean.
And may his groups always be small & round.

Grumpa - Hope to meet you on the other side. It was nothing but a pleasure on this side. Every time i pull the trigger on one of your 25-20 cases - I will think of you and yours.

RIP Grumpa
I will think of you everytime I squeeze the trigger on my 222 with the fine LC brass you formed.

[nagantguy]

His 32 Remington brass he made for us from 38-55 is still going strong and operate’s flawlessly in an old 141 pump . He will be missed and I will always remember him fondly!

[Mytmousemalibu]

What a shocker! I never did business with him but always enjoyed and many times amazed at what he did.

He will be greatly missed. My sincere condolences.

[RogerDat]

Surprised and saddened by this news. Liked his posts, was blessed by his encouragement in my own brass reforming endeavors. He will be missed here and I'm sure in his family and community.

[Time Killer]

RIP Never met or chatted with him but I have read many of his post. May the lord be with and comfort his family.

[Dieselhorses]

This is why salvation is so important, one never knows when the finger of death will touch you.

Yes, Salvation is very important, you don't return from hence you've gone.

I have a question though, is there a place on this forum, like "IN MEMORY OF..."? Seems like there should be.

[pjames32]

RIP Grumpa!

[rwadley]

Yes, Salvation is very important, you don't return from hence you've gone.

It's called "In Remembrance" in "Our Town"

[trooperdan]

Dang! This is a real shock to me! Grumpa was like an old friend even though we had never met. RIP old friend, Condolences to his family. We are diminished!

[Dieselhorses]

Thank you kindly

Wow. I sure enjoyed and gained a lot of knowledge from this fine gentleman! Praying for family as they readjust to his passing on. God's peace to all of you.

[PB234]

I am guessing he had piles of inventory to be sold. In a few weeks for those who can use it to contact his family and buy the inventory? Might be helpful to turn the inventory (how does one otherwise sell it?) into cash. A lot better for them than throwing it into the trash.

[swheeler]

RIP Grumpa may God bless your loved ones.

[shdwlkr]

Wow I was saving up funds to have him make me some custom brass, I have some he made for me in an obsolete caliber and now every time I use it I will remember the fine gentleman that made it for me.
I sure hope the family gives those of here first chance at this inventory, so we can get our last chance at his fine work.
condolences to the family and so sorry for your loss. Seems that so many knowledgeable people we need here are being called home.

[Skunk1]

RIP grumpa, you’ll be missed

[pworley1]

A great member that will long be missed.

[Shawlerbrook]

Prayers and condolences ! Our fraternity has lost another brother.

[Sam Casey]

His contributions were appreciated by many. He will be missed.

[tankgunner59]

RIP Grumpa. May God bless your family in their time of loss.

[just bill]

He and I exchanged PM's on the third about 357max AR brass. Always a helping hand, my condolences to the family.
Bill

[FISH4BUGS]

I just got a shipment of 300 25-20 brass from him.
How sad.

[358wcf]

Dang! A finer gentleman there will never be- He helped many of us keep our older firearms shooting by providing otherwise "obsolete" cases, expertly formed, at minimal cost. His word was his bond, never questioned. He set an excellent example for all of us, dealing fairly with everyone who contacted him.
I've used his cases for years, and regret that I never had the wisdom to "stock up" for this unfortunate eventuality.
RIP, Matt- you are missed already!
We are diminished-

[Estacado]

How sad. Grumpa will be missed. Every time I shoot some of his 35 Remington brass I'll think of him.

[TheGrimReaper]

This is horrible news. RIP,Sir.

[mold maker]

Yet another gifted and knowledgeable member taken from our midst. Condolences to the family and friends.

[John Boy]

Grumpa - You will be sadly missed on all the forums that you have contributed to. On the Trail to Heaven - there will be a Trail Marker so that when we too pass by - A Big Tip of the Hat to You ...

RIP my Friend

[funnyjim014]

Grumpa was a staple to this site, he will be missed by all. I only hope he passed some of his knowledge to someone

[Intel6]

I am shocked and sad to hear this. He was a great guy I first met while working on getting ammo made for a new (to me) .310 Cadet Martini. He was very helpful in working with me to thin the rims on some new Starline 32-20 cases so I could get up and running. Since I know those cases will last forever, I will think of him every time I shoot it.

[mfraser264]

Matt was a gentlemen to do business with, have a couple of piles of brass he converted for me. Thoughts and prayers to his family. Will be missed here.....

[brass410]

I did some business with Grumpa and he was honest and a great guy. When he posted on
the forum I always read it because I knew I would be smarter afterwards.

[Boolseye]

Best to his family–sounds like I am one of many who had a good interaction with him, I purchased some 25-20 cases a couple years back. Excellent guy.
