Soop Dogg Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Just heard about this. A legend in his own lifetime. I even named my cat after him. I remember seeing him interviewed a handful of years back and the thing I remember him saying was that although he was in his 80's, he still woke up at night with ideas of new things to do - he was still genuinely excited about life and had lots more things he wanted to do before leaving this world. RIP - a hero lost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
