Is that Razorbacker on the opposite side with the cane?

Tried some searches. Found nothing. He and his brother (only close relative) were both in poor shape. May have been no one to write an obit.

Yeah, I didn't find anything, either. I found a Facebook page for Bruchi, but its latest entries are 2018/2019. Other option is they could still be alive?

When he posted that his workshop had been broken into and his equipment stolen including his desktop so he was trying to post from a flip phone. Both him and his brother has serious diabetes complications going on. His brother was in bad shape with amputated limbs and such.

Yes, I have a pic of hawken when we went to visit him.
It's on my desktop, so it's going to be a few weeks before I can get to it to post it.

Anyone remember the Marine in the Colorado area that had a flower boutique? I can’t remember his name. I think he was originally from the gulf area…

Dan still showed up at G&A on occasion he’s active on FB. I think his brother was Howa Shooter? But I always got the two of them mixed up online. Great guys and probably my first interaction with members outside of the forums was them.

The last few times he posted he said he was having some serious health issues and then he dropped off.

Howa Hinter was Stephen Diaz. Super good guy. Offered me up a place to stay when I was going through my divorce.
