RIP David Castle

So Sad,

What a great guy. Really contributed and was an SEO genius. God bless to his family. He'll be sorely missed here on the forum.

Thanks for sharing Sal,

Dennis

Very Sad - what an awesome guy he was. He'll be sorely missed.

RIP CTABUK, you will be missed.

As Sal mentioned... see you on the other side

Please send my condolences to the family.

Sad....R.I.P. David...
I'm relieved a bit in knowing his end came swiftly......Cancer can be such a painful, humiliating, drawn out illness...
My condolences to his family.

RIP David. My heart goes out to the family.

This news just made an already bad day horrible.

RIP.

Leslie - if you are reading this:

I am so stunned by this news that I don't know what to say. I am sure you and the rest of the family are devastated and so wish there were something I could say to ease the pain of your loss.

David and I were in a discussion via pm not more than a few weeks ago and one day he just didn't answer. I assumed he was just busy. He had never let on.....never complained....never once dropped a hint that all was not as normal. He was mentally sharp and decisive as always, and was a wealth of information and humor, right up to the last.

David was a wonderful human being and role model. He truly earned his status as a Warrior, in real life as well as in the forum. I think that I can speak for many here.........he was well loved and highly respected...he will not be forgotten.

My sincerest condolences and affection to you and the rest of the family.

I am in shock and choose to be in denial right now, at least until I get my head around this.

This better be some kind of sucky publicity stunt.

I haven't talked to David in a while though, so I dunno.

I do know that he is/was a very dear and loving person with a great sense of humor. What more could anyone ask for.

If this is true, my condolences to his family and friends.

Whether true or not, I know we will see him again someday.

David if you can see this, you better 'speak now or forever hold your piece'.

(my favorite line of David's was when he was telling a joke, he would say, before the punch line, 'wait for it'.

I am waiting for it...

'witchypoo'

May you rest in peace David.

Thanks for being part of my world.

God Bless and thanks.

May His Memory Be Eternal

Oh, no. I had no idea. RIP, David. Much peace to his family as well.

Cindy

Oh wow... I didn't know him that well but I definitely recognize the name. It really gives you a sinking feeling when a fellow warrior passes on.

Peace and prayers...

RIP David, my thoughts go out to your family and friends

Please send my condolences to the family.

How very sad. Another Warrior loss this year. I sometimes wish there were more opportunities on here to let people know how valued they are while they're still around. You'll be missed, David. Rest in peace.

RIP DAVID. :-(

Damn - He was a character

I will miss his jokes

I hate when warriors die.

David and his family will be in my
thoughts and prayers. He was a
really nice guy and will be sorely
missed.

John

My condolences to his family. He was really good with SEO and I really shocked to read this.

RIP David - you will be missed.

My deepest condolences go to the family. May peace be with them in this difficult time.

Sagar

RIP David :-(

My condolences go out to his family.

RIP David Castle.

This is really depressing. Seeing another person fall to cancer. A very close family member of mine just contracted cancer and the source cannot be detected. It's spreading real fast and I don't know what to do nor deal with it.

Alvin Huang

What terrible news, it's like losing a member of the family when a warrior dies

RIP David

Kim

My prayers go to David's family. So sad to hear this. For all of you WF members that knew David, be strong too. Sad days when a friend pass away.

How awful. We all loved him. RIP David.

In response to all of the messages of condolence, David's dear wife Leslie would like to express her sincere appreciation to all of his colleagues and friends here at the WarriorForum.

I know he really enjoyed what he did. I'd often hear him burst out laughing and I'd call through to his office "haven't you got any work to do?". His answer was always the same "this is work!!!".

David got a great deal of pleasure, and sometimes downright fun, from his contact with all of you. If there's an internet in heaven I just know he'll be straight in organizing everyone.

Amidst this most difficult of times, I have found great comfort in the kind words and thoughts expressed by members of the many online communities in which he participated.

David would have been very humbled and honoured.

David was really one of the good guys, he will be sorely missed by all of us.

RIP David, he was a very nice kind man

What sad news.

Sincere and heartfelt condolences to David's family and friends - of which there were many.

Another one of the greats has escaped this mortal coil, he will be missed...he will be remembered.

Thoughts and prayers,
Michael

I didn't know him as well as some others, but the short time I did was worth it.
RIP CTABUK.

Hi Eugene - Welcome to the Warriors - at last. Isn't it funny how the people we care about can tell us something over and over again, yet the only time we hear is when the only sharing left..on this side of the divide... is the word "goodbye"?

David was an OTer in royal form........that is, he was one of the "basement dwellers" in the Off the Topic forum. You might have met me at TIPS in the chat room - here, I am an OTer, too. What David was excited about around the time which I joined - along with many OTers is that we were joining in general protest here - and he had led that protest. If nothing else, it let him realize that he had real friends - and it made him feel great to give us a solution even though things were cleared up here. We still always knew that we still had a place to go to convein if we decided this wasn't the right place any more. With David there, it was still home.

You can read the OT version of this thread in the basement with us. You see....David and I chatted via pm's fairly regularly. I was waiting for a belated answer to the last PM to him. Just figured he was busy. After I stopped reeling from the shock of this news, I was able to think clearly about his last message to me. I won't rehash that here because I'm sure now that you will go to the Off the Topic forum and find that thread. Let's just suffice it to say, he dropped me a word that I didn't hear all that clearly until I wrote that last post of mine in there. I hear it now...and that project is under way, just as you are here. But - I think he knew that we'd "get it" eventually, eh?

I sure hope you will come back and join us now and again...if not in the line of work, at least to stop in at the OT to bounce off the walls with us a bit just as you and your pal were used to doing in TIPS. You are always welcome here and it won't take you long to find out why we all, including David could never stay away for too long.
