I'm an infrequent poster here, and I hate to be the one to announce this.
It's with a very heavy heart that I inform you that our friend Roy Finn a.k.a. "RDFinn" passed away yesterday.
A friend of mine noticed "RIP Roy" messages on his Facebook page. He subsequently contacted his daughter, who confirmed Roy's death.
I know no details of what happened.
I never met Roy personally, but got to know him through his posts over at Optics Talk and to a lesser extent here. He and I did communicate quite a bit via email, as we had mutual tastes in guns, knives, and optics. The Roy I knew was a kind, thoughtful guy who loved his daughters very dearly. I wish I could have had the opportunity to know him better.
I will miss my friend.
Please keep Roy's family in your prayers.
Ted

He was a really good man. I'll miss him.

Very sorry to hear that. He was always a poster worth reading.

Damn, I truly hate to read that. We came that close to meeting up in Jersey one time but couldn't work it out. Had to be a heart attack.

Dang it, just dang it.
Roy was a friend and I'll miss him.
Karen and I will pray for his soul, light prayer candles for him and have a Mass celebrated for our friend Roy's soul.
Godspeed, old friend, godspeed.
Blessings,
Steve

This sucks. Godspeed, Roy, you were a good one and will be missed. Condolences to his family.
America needs to understand that our troops are not 'disposable'. Each represents a family; Fathers, Mothers, Sons, Daughters, Cousins, Uncles, Aunts... Our Citizens are our most valuable treasure; we waste far too many.

RIP Roy, the Campfire circle is less without your presence.
His last post was 6 days ago, anyone know what happened?

Had several dealings with Roy over the years, most here on the fire.
Roy was a class act. He will be missed
RIP Roy
