R.I.P. Mark Stamper (aka Unknown Primate)

[Scatter]

It is with the most PROFOUND and devastating sorrow that I have to report that our beloved Mark passed away last night. He was my friend, my brother, and a kindred spirit, as he was to so many here.

I don't have the details yet. My heart is broken.

[Flower]

I am too sad for words .. please let me/us know all the details when you get them.

DAMN IT TO HELL!  At least he got to enjoy his baby granddaughter.

I am stunned. I'm at a total loss of words. This is a very sad day for our community. 

[Hepcat]

Oh man. And he seemed to have recovered from the heart attack he had a couple of years ago. That is so very sad.

[Gasport]

I'm staring at one of his beautifully stunning Big Foot pieces looking back at me on my desk as i read this...I feel sick.

[RICKH]

I've just read Gary's post and I'm in shock...it is so, so sad.  Mark was a great guy who always had a word of encouragement and kindness for everyone.  Heaven's gain is our loss.  Mark will be missed.

[Fester]

Mark.
Oh man, what a shock.

Of all the lovable lugs in the UMA, you were one of the best.
Always cheerful. 
Always witty.
A talented artist.
And one heck of an all-around nice guy.

The word will be an emptier place without you.
We will all keep fond memories of you in our hearts.
I know I will.

"Now cracks a noble heart. Good-night, sweet prince;
And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest."

See you later,  Mark. 
Give Uncula a hug for me.

Unbelievabley tragic news! I am shocked and saddened beyond words. I am truly going to miss the big guy as I am sure we all will. R.I.P  U.P.

[Dr Wolfenstein]

 Crushing news! Always enjoyed his sense of humour.He was a very cool guy.

[Dr. Madd]

Oh no! When I first joined UMA, one of the first people I made friends with was Mark. He was a sweet, friendly, teddy bear of a guy, and there'll not be another like him.

Rest in peace,  My friend.

[Anton Phibes]

Terrible. Just terrible. Deepest sympathies to the family.

[Dr. Madd]

It's been said by the Egyptians of old, and I know here it doesn't mean much considering the great loss this forum has suffered this day, but the saying was :

To speak of the dead is to make them live again.

We should speak of Mark often.

[Count_Zirock]

No. No, no, no, no!



I'm literally shaking as I post these. Oh, I can't believe it! It's too heartbreaking for words. Poor Liz.
