Uncula

I am sad to announce that Uncula has passed. But I must say he did enjoy all the cards that members sent him and it made him happy. His passing was quick. Thank you.

Oh Eyrdie, this is such terrible news.  My condolences to you, your mom, his wife and your whole family.  This group has lost too many wonderful people that were so passionate not about their monsters, but their fellow members.  Your Uncle Don really enjoyed himself here at the UMA.  He will be missed by us all.\

Eyrdie, this is so sad.  I am so sorry to hear this.  He was just a great guy and will be very missed.  Rest in peace, now, Don - your pain & suffering is over.  Prayers & condolences to you, Eyrdie, and to Don's wife and all his family & friends.

Here's a photo (from Dan Roebuck) from old thread showing Don (sitting in his scooter) at last year's Horrorhound.



We all knew how disappointed Don was that he was going to miss this year's.  I'd like to think that now he will get to go to the ultimate show where Boris, Bela, Lon, and the rest of our favorites are guests.  He is surely in a better place.

I am so sorry to hear that Don has left us. Earlier this evening I looked up the thread Gary had started to see if we had any good news. He was always kind, friendly, and lots of fun here at the UMA. I am sad that I will no longer get a chance to read his funny quips. My condolences to his family. Believe me, he will be missed.

I had noticed that he was signed in earlier and sent him a PM, this is shocking news. Parting is such sweet sorrow, rest in peace Don you will be missed. My condolances to his family and to you Eyrdie because you brought him happiness though the forum as he seemed reluctant at first.

Very sorry to read this sad news -- my condolences to his family and friends.

My condolences to his family in prayer.... I read this and was completely and utterly stunned.

I know him but little, but I hope he saves us all a seat at the monster movie marathon in the next life.

This is very sad.  He was such an enthusiastic member.  I got the feeling that the UMA was one of the high points of his life.  He was certainly supportive of my endeavors, and I appreciate that.  I will miss his presence here, and on Facebook, where he communicated with me a lot.  If he had to go, too bad it couldn't have been a few days later so he could have hung out with us at MaskFest.  He was cheated of that last bit of fun.

This is so horribly sad.  Don was so passionate about this group and supported us in many ways.  He was looking forward to discussing his idea for a UMA logo belt buckle at this past MaskFest.  I hope he knew how much he was appreciated here.  Rest in peace, Don.

 My prayers and condolences go out to every member of his family.  My heart goes out to us at the UMA also for the loss of a very special piece of our little family.  I will miss his poems and sence of humor.  Rest in peace Don.

Rest in peace Uncula.

You will live on in all our hearts.
