@Blackpoolmad saidI remember Delmer, who started Clan Caissa. We had lots of good conversations while playing. He died a few years ago and the clan notified the members that he was sick and probably wont make it. I managed to get in a phone call just a couple days before he passed... first and last time I heard his voice. So many people here we know but not well enough to know about their life.
I have been playing 20 years on RHP now since I was 39. I'm 60 in June.
As RHP has been going about 1/4 of a century, would anyone know how many players have passed away to the big chess club in the sky from RHP?
RIP to all my chess brothers and sisters from around the world.
@Ponderable saidGood idea.
In fact it could be a good idea to have a admion-only thread in announcement about those deads?

@Torunn saidWas special, he is not longer with us. I use to have a lot of fun in war of words with him. I think he took things a bit to serious at times, but I suppose I did too. 😉
I may have read earlier that HandyAndy is no longer with us, I miss him very much, he is special.
I think making a Forum for those no longer with us would be a good idea. Someday many of us will be on that list. None of us are going to make it out alive.
