I just saw that on Facebook. I spoke with him a couple months ago and he was really struggling. It was really sad to see him in such a state. He was such a presence, vibrant, funny in a gruff way but had a big heart.
He was a great guy and instrumental in making the metal shaping community what it is today. He was one of the early board members of MetalMeet.
Rest in peace John. I'll think of you every time I walk past my Boogiemanz bead roller.
