Member "Old Coot" Passes
I'd been reading "Rambling through History" in The Weirs Times for 15 years, and learned a few years ago that he was a member of an antique radio forum, Winnipesaukee.com/forums/, as well as the many short-lived Wolfeboro political forums.
As a fan of Ernie Kovacs, he wrote most recently as member "Matzoh Heppelwhite" here. I never met him, although we could have crossed paths at Tuftonboro's Shore Acres resort. His forum contributions were many—leaning elsewhere towards household electrical appliances manufactured in the last half-century or older—and in local Wolfeboro forums, politics. Here, he had much to say about "The Quiet Side" of the lake: http://winnipesaukee.com/forums/sear...archid=4441677 The Weirs Times announcement: http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i1...pscaapm6gi.jpg The Weirs Times Biography: Quote:

I'm not sure if "Old Coot" would approve of this thread, especially coming from you!

APS;
You probably should have noted in your post that Mal passed over 6 months ago... I enjoyed his many writings and his wit! Dan

Just to make it clear where I'm coming from, "Old Coot" didn't like this forum, APS, or any of APS's aliases.
I knew him personally as well as participated with him on various forums in the lakes region and I pretty well know where he wants to be remembered. Sorry "Old Coot", but I just had to let it be known how you felt and I hope I did the right thing.

It's nice that you buried the hatchet with Matzoh by posting his obit. He sure didn't have anything nice to say about you.
From the wolfe forum excerpts that you posted, "News Hawk appears to be a tormented man filled with resentment, anger, and disdain for anyone of an opinion or view other than his." |

I think both members, APS and Old Coot loved to post just stir the pot. So in Old Coot's death, he is still stirring the pot. APS got you all going. OC is looking down and laughing that sarcastic laugh.

I agree. I think APS was being reflective and sincere with his post. I'm sure he misses his foil the Old Coot.
