After ticking along with my life quietly for a while I was sent a message by a close friend out of the blue today, I thought it would be poignant to include it here.
I made my friend a sling while we were on vacation last year and it got me excited to check the forum again today.
CA was the moderator who approved my membership and helped me get the lay of the land, he always came across as a well meaning, thoughtful and respectful individual.
RIP Alex.
I'll keep doing my best to spread the word of our small community.

This is Alex in the fields by his home with his beloved dogs and a sling. This is how I will remember him.

Oh this is heartbreaking, CA was very kind to me as a newbie with weird ideas. He'll be sorely missed
