My gunshow buddy and fellow campfire member, Mike, passed this morning from COVID-19. For the last couple weeks Mike was in a Milwaukee hospital in an induced coma and on a ventilator. Mike's lungs started doing better and he was taken off of the ventilator, but then his kidneys started failing and his body shut down. Mike had diabetes and was also a former smoker, in his mid 60's. Mike was really into lever guns and was excited about a couple he had just picked up in February, an 1895 in 30 US and an 1886 take-down in 33 Win. He also has a nice collection of old Marlins, 94's and Savage 99's. His user name here was bgl0b6. He was a good friend and I'm going to miss him!

Thoughts and prayers for all left behind. Keep the good memories alive.
