Well, sh*t.
Thanks for all you've done, friend.
The opinions of this poster are largely based on facts and portray a possible version of the actual events. More dumb stuff at http://www.darts-page.comFrom Laser: "The forum is the place where combat (real time) flight simulator fans come to play turn based strategy combat."

Sorry to hear this, Murphy. You’ll be in my thoughts.
Thanks for being one of those who made this site a great place to be.
In all my years I've never seen the like. It has to be more than a hundred sea miles and he brings us up on his tail. That's seamanship, Mr. Pullings. My God, that's seamanship!

Murphy, you have always been a shining example here, and I am certain in real life. I am sad to hear this news, but you have lived well...

Fair winds and following seas Murphy, I haven't been here for a while but I am saddened by this news, I've read posts from SimHQ since 2001 and the news from Airdrop01 and yourself struck a chord.
It is good that you have enjoyed your days.

That Farrow bloke you executed today, are you sure he's dead? Well I chopped his head off, that usually does the trick. Yes, don't get clever with me Baldrick. I just thought you might have lopped off a leg or something by mistake. No, the thing I chopped off had a nose.

I rarely visit here anymore, because I've become too jaded and hateful of the modern state of the simulation genre, that I never play them anymore. Seems like every time I visit, there's another one of us passing on, or on the final leg of their flight plan. I guess we're a dying breed. Best wishes Murph.
I refuse to buy a flight sim that I have no interest in playing, on the off chance that MAYBE someday they'll make the one I really want to play.

I am sorry to hear this. Godspeed, I loved your stories about being a cop in Detroit in the 1970's. Must have been a wild ride. I'd love for you to post a photo, I collect them of members so I can remember them.

Murph posted his sad anouncement two months ago. He wrote that he only had a few weeks left. Hard to say, but he is probably gone. I'm 66. Not horribly old by today's standards but it still causes me to contemplate my own mortality as the years fly by. Family members pass. Freinds, also. I'm not a religious man at all, but I still can't help wondering what happens to us when it's over. Maybe nothing. We'll only know when we, inevitably, go too. When we hear that someone has died I always say to my wife, "Well, now they know the big secret." I think Murph may know, now, too.

I spoke to Murphy a week ago. He getting his affairs in order and making sure he has taken all the steps necessary for his family.
I will call him again in a couple days.
Good people sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.
Someday your life will flash in front of your eyes. Make sure it is worth watching.
