Wow, didn't realize how many troubles he had over the past decade.  Still, 37, wow.

Troubled before and after, his days playing at Hawaii gave him a stability he never had or regained since. Watched him live a half-dozen times while stationed at Pearl Harbor. Staying up late and watching him shred defenses for +400 TDs was one of the greatest shows in College Football.

I am sorry to hear that Medina.   I know from recent experience- it’s hard.   Hang in there.

Very sorry to hear MB. He's now in a better place and no longer suffering.

Celebrate his life. It sounds like he had a really good one, and it was made even better by getting to spend time with you.
U RAH RAH! WIS CON SIN!

Terrible to hear.  Never got to meet him, but we are all a product of our upbringing, and he did a hell of a job.

Thank you all.

I was going to revive the dementia thread to post the conclusion there but couldn't find it. Anyway, he enjoyed meeting you on our stadium tour. I'm so glad that he and my brother and I did that together. Those memories are there every time I flip to a game in any of the B1G stadiums. I see the stadium and think about our trip and being there with my dad. We traveled to Piscataway at the outskirts of NYC and to Lincoln on the Prarie. We jumped around in Madison (dad didn't get that) and froze in Minneapolis. We visited Gettysburg on our way to College Park Maryland and saw GameDay in Iowa City. All those and the stadiums in between were great trips.
