Hunter and Family -

My family and I send our heartfelt sympathy and condolences, we hope that you will gather close and comfort each other. Jeff and I shared e-mails for a while, when my last one yesterday went un-anwered I feared this was the reason. I wish him eternal peace.

A good man and class act, he faced this stage of his life with grace and courage. Thank you for letting us know, and again I'm saddened to learn of your loss.

We send our very best wishes.

Karon and Patrick

Hunter, I am truly saddened by your father's passing. You and your family have my deepest sympathy. We barely met and got to know one another for a brief moment on this site, but I really liked him as much as could be in such a manner and for such a brief timespan. Thank you for passing on his thoughts to us here. He was a world class guy.Yes

Hunter,

 

I am very sorry that you've lost your dad. That's terrible news, we all really enjoyed his brief time with us.

His lesson to us, is that time is short and to the best of one's abilities, spent doing things that are meaningful, and making friends.

He will really be missed. Best of luck to you and the family, and hey if the mood strikes you, we'll be looking for ModelMan90!

Gentlemen,

My name is Hunter and my father is Jeff (ModelMan68) It deeply hurts me to inform you he passed way this afternoon at 4:41pm. On Monday my father and I had a conversation and he stressed that I write you and express his statement. I will do my best to highlight everything and everyone. So here I go....

My friends,

Well, the time has come for me to put the top back on my glue and put my small parts away. I cannot express how grateful I am for being about of this forum and having the opportunity to talk and discuss modelling with you. I truely thank all of you for your kind words and prayers for me and my family during this period in our life.

My father had a hard time talking and thinking during this so if I missed anyone during this next section I am truely sorry....

Bish, Steve(ModelCrazy), Stikpusher, Patrick206, RudyonWheels, PlasticJunkie, GMorrison, Joe(Highland272), Brian Miller, Fermis and everyone that I interacted with on the forums I would like to thank you for the time spent discussing modelling and what ever come about. I throughly enjoy every moment. Gentlemen it has truely been an honor getting to meet you. 

So now it is time for me to turn off my bench lights, push in my chair and say goodbye.

I wish all of you the best life has to offer and many years of great health and happiness.

My father passing came before I had the chance to post his thoughts. Gentlemen, Thank you for being so friendly and kind to my father during his time on the forum. He greatly appreciated your talks and your love for the hobby.
