"Dear friends of IHD, I am sorry to have to tell you all that today, March 2, 2007, our beloved Bill "Epoman" Halcomb passed away. He fell ill last Saturday with what they said was a viral infection. When i last talked to Trina, they werent quite sure what the reason of his death was but she will let me know sometime soon. Please say a prayer for our friend "Epoman" (my Sucka Fish) May God Bless Trina and Nick at this moment of need.

Goofynina/Susie"

R.I.P.

I really liked what he was doing, he was so determined to help those going through dialysis.

Since his passing I have volunteered to help keep the "IHD" family of sites up and running. Bill and I actually had a few discussions about what would happen in the event of his untimely death. Obviously no one saw this coming and I assumed he would be with us for decades to come.

My only regret is that I didn't get to meet such an extraordinary person.

If anyone would like to offer financial support to his family, Bill's wife has access to his Paypal account.

RIP Epoman, you will be missed and I will never forget

Thank you Ross, for taking care of his sites, and doing what you can.

Damn. :(

I do remember him, although I don't really remember any of his posts, or posting style.

That is probably actually a good thing, though.

RIP.

I remember him from a thread asking for advice about a spammer on his forum. I added a brief entry of him to the AT Wiki, but anyone who could elaborate should add to it.

Aw, I remember talking to him a few times.

The sad thing is you wonder how many other ATers there are out there who have died and we have just forgotten about...
