I just talked to Scott and he no longer has internet access at work, so he wanted me to post this note asking if Kent or anyone knows anything about arrangements yet, and if anyone has any idea if Art's family needs or would accept donations from his friends? Even the most simple arrangements are going to be a lot of money and we'd like to help if we can.

I was going to wait for the obit, rather than bug the family, but that is a beautiful thought.

I'll send a message and see.

Let me know if I can do anything. YK was a stand up guy.

Wow. I just.... wow.

He was such a nice guy-- so sweet and thoughtful. Always laughing and wanting to help if possible. I never got to meet him in person but he just had that kind of aura, you know?

This is devastating. Sending good thoughts to his family but... wow. I just can't believe it. He was only fifty. It really isn't fair.

May he rest in peace.

I have to admit that I didn't really know Art as much more than a regular poster who'd been here forever. We never interacted on an individual level. However, I'm an avid cyclist myself and about ten years ago the father of an old friend died under similar circumstances. It saddens me deeply that another family has to suffer through that pain.

Oh, God. I'm in shock right now. Like Director Lad, I didn't know him as well as some, but I'm so used to him being around.

I am one of the lucky ones here who got to meet Art in person. This news deeply saddens me.

Kent, please let me know when we can help with things.

WTF?!?!?!

Damnit all! This is the second time within a month that a motorist-cyclist encounter has taken away somebody I can only wish to have known a lot better.

Awful. Just awful. So very sad for everyone that really had the privilege of knowing YK, either online or off. I'm so sorry. [Frown]

damn damn damn

(Excuse me for cutting out with only one post. I'll feel funnier tomorrow. I promise.)

Hey, Kids! My "Cranky and Kitschy" collage art is now viewable on flickr. Drop by and tell me that I sent you.

There was a link to a local news story about the accident.

News story

I registered and made this comment
Ardie was a member of a message board with me. Everyone on the board is saddened by the loss of our Yellow Kid (Ardie's screen name) He will be missed so much.

All our thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

*saddened by the news with a lot of tears filling up* speechless to say anything.

Farewell, Yellow Kid, you will be missed greatly.
