    Sad News

    Jeff Iddings, W4GPL, one of the Island's founders and long time owner/administrator has passed away. According to his sister, there will be no memorial service.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Holy shit. It's even sadder when they're young.

    Yes. He was only 38.

    Man I'm sorry for your guys loss. I never knew him.

    Hopefully stories will be told which will help me know him a bit.

    Damn... This is indeed a huge loss for us. I never even knew he had health issues going on. 38 is far to young.
