I would normally not do this, but when the shocking death of someone you worked with you discover in a foreign country because it is in USA today, that’s kind of a big deal.
On December 24, I worked my last shift in the lab at Wyoming and this guy was the nurse in the ER. Just 11 days later, and he’s gone, the victim of the avalanche in Wyoming.
And he was an experienced outdoorsman who trained others, and he was one of the good guys. Everyone is in shock over this. And then I see it made a Pittsburgh paper as well.

When friends and colleagues who are close to our age start dying, our entire perception of life and death changes greatly. We're all mortal...I would normally not do this, but when the shocking death of someone you worked with you discover in a foreign country because it is in USA today, that’s kind of a big deal.

Sam Moore, famed for 'Soul Man' with Sam & Dave, has died at 89
Alan Green, a transformational pioneer that changed the surf world as we know it, has passed away at the age of 77 years old. He gracefully kicked out on January 14, 2025, after a short fight with various forms of cancer.
Growing up in Victoria, Australia, in 1968, Green, along with cohorts Dough “Claw” Warbrick and Brian Singer, began a fledgling wetsuit company in Torquay they called Rip Curl. Ever the entrepreneur, a year later, with a $2,500 loan from his father, a 22-year-old Green started experimenting with boardshort designs, ostensibly launching the behemoth that would become Quiksilver from a small, rented vacation home in Torquay. Partnering with friend John Law, the first batch of boardies rolled out to the world in 1970/71.
By 1998, Quiksilver had become the first surf brand to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
From humble beginnings in Torquay to a global surf superpower, it’s hard to imagine Green conceived the size and scale of his creation when he started, but more than a half century later, his vision and legacy live on.
Our deepest condolences to the family and friends of Green. He changed the game like no one else.
Speaking of Quiksilver boardshorts....a younger Bazza sporting a fav. pair of his "Quicks".....
Hall of Fame broadcaster Bob Uecker has passed away at the age of 90

“They worried I would ground into double play so they sent me to the plate with no bat”
"The way to catch a knuckleball is to wait until it stops rolling and then pick it up."
-Bob Uecker
"Ball 4. Ball 8. Ball 12. And Vaughan walks the bases loaded on 12 straight pitches. Boy, how are these guys laying off pitches this close!?!"
RIP Uecker. MLB will not be the same without you.
