Nil8r 9 APR 76 - 14 NOV 12
« on: November 14, 2012, 08:45:03 AM »
Today, Nil8r (Ron Bilodeau) passed away from complications resulting from his battle with brain-related issues.

A friend, mentor, son, father and pillar of this community, his loss diminishes us and we will remember him forever.

My sincerest condolences to his family in this time of loss.  He's finally received his well-deserved rest, though.

I appreciate the picture Rogue. It didn't hit me as hard till I saw it.

I will miss him.

Went to see him yesterday. You could say he "died in his sleep" ..No pain, peacefully.

I never knew him.  Been to gearbox a couple times but don't ever recall seeing him..  But when I heard about his passing my heart still sank.  From what I've heard he was a good guy,  I wish I would have had the chance to become equated with him.  Unfortunately that didn't happen.  You will be missed Ron.

I've only met Ron a couple times, but every single time I did he was the greatest help to me. He will be missed.

Can I get a group going for a memorial patch for this pillar of the sport?
