Dave Thomson passed this morning
48 years old with a wife and 2 kids
I'm at a loss for words.

Wow.  :(  

That's horrible.  That's way too young.
I'll go back to being a conservative, when conservatives go back to being conservative.

If I had a quarter of that guy's brains, I'd be a genius.
Our industry will miss him

Jeezaz. I just found out. What happened?

Man oh man, one of the people I hoped to meet when I eventually made it to Canada was Dave. I never spoke to him, only emailed, and he was always so pleasant and helpful.

I am absolutely stunned by this,

I just got a call from Kevin Hesch telling mea, asfhwegergehsrehewthjtrjtykfyu,lgu.

Dave was a brilliant, amazing guy and a bit of a walking hero to a younger engineers that worked at In-House while he was there. I learned a ton from him and I was looking forward to getting caught up when I moved back Canada-side. He's going to be missed by a lot of people in the industry and beyond. I miss him already.  Can't imagine what his family is going through with this kind of sudden thing.

Here's Johnny!
