Wasn't Tommy a contributor to the boxing threads on the Knicks forums?

This is sad news to me. Anyone know what happened? Was he battling cancer or anything?

I didn't know him that well but it's still sad to see such a great contributor to the boards pass.

My prayers & condolences go out to his family.

I posted this on the Bulls board:

Some of you may want to know more information about George's forthcoming obit, the upcoming ceremony, and means of leaving memories or a memorial. The following info comes indirectly from George's brother, and is relayed by one of George's friends with whom he did a lot of volunteer work:

George's birthday would have been September 14. He would have been 62. There will be an obituary in Sunday's (September 16th) Chicago Tribune. There will be a viewing of the body at the Ewald-Barlock Funeral Home (http://www.ewaldbarlockfuneralhome.com/) in Chicago on Monday (September 17th) and the burial will be on Tuesday (September 18th). Apparently the funeral home will soon have a web page where comments can be left honoring George.

The link above also tells how to make a charitable donation, in honor of George, to an organization for which he spent many hours volunteering. That's for any who feel moved in that way. Some people in the Chicago area may even want to attend the viewing in person. Whatever seems right.

He was a welcome addition for sure in the NYK boards. Very objective, informative, and it was a pleasure to read any of his posts.

He will be missed.

That´s very sad news. I´m mostly a lurker, and while my account is not that old, I´ve been visiting realgm for at least 5 years, almost daily. Tommy was one of those guys that you don´t want to miss any post from, very knowledgeable and was always nice to everyone.

RIP TU6
