Dear 16 Society Members, Our Dad 'Scraggley' has passed away. His incredible knowledge and experinces gone with him. He was a 16 fanatic, and has an extensive amount of 16ga related components, presses, roll crimpers, 2-1/2" shells, hulls, etc. We have been trying to figure out his login credentials and finally came across his notepad w/ id/pws. We (his sons) are cleaning out his reloading room and we know he would love it if there were any 16Ga members nearby to Granby, CT that would be interested in these 16 ga items, would have to move fast, and be able to contact us and make arrangements to come by before Thurs (6/3) PM. If interested please direct message w/ your contact information.
We will be checking his messages frequently as we are under the gun so to speak to get this cleaned out.
Sincerely his sons (Dave & John) |

I'm so sorry to hear of his passing. You have my condolences.
It quite admirable that you are offering to pass along some of your dad's reloading stuff and his love of the 16ga to other members. |

| Sad to hear of his passing. Too far away to be of any assistance, though I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers. |

My condolences are with his family, my thoughts and prayers as they move forward.
Many of us may end up like Scraggley, with a shop full of hunting/shooting equipment that someone needs some day after we're gone. Over the last month, I have been helping a dear friend with serious health issues liquidate some of his reloading equipment/components--still got a lot to go as time allows. Since I am selling it at less-than-pre-shortage prices, it has moved quickly.
Too far away to help with Scraggley's items. May God bless the family. |
