Ed passed away yesterday. I am going to miss him so much.

Good-bye Moosie.

Although I can't bring myself to boil ribs in your honor, I'll raise a
glass.

You'll be missed.

I've been lurking on and off here for years.....I remember him as being

Condolences.

Lead me not into temptation... I can find it myself!

Not as uncommon as one would be led to believe.

Yes, that is what happened with my mother. She had open heart surgery
and she never really recovered either. A week later, she died.

This grieves me. Moosemeat was an RFC institution.

It was my FIL he hung on for 8 weeks of pure misery. Eventually his kidneys
failed from all the plaque that they dislodge he eventually passed on from
Kidney failure - His choice to stop the dialyses - he came to made his peace
and was gone 36 hours later surrounded by family. The 300 to 400K to the
medical profession really irked me.

What a relief! I've been pinned to my side of I-5, clutching my burp gun
for years, now.

I'm really sorry about that, I saw the same thing with my inlaws. They had
terrific insurance, so any time the hospital got ahold of them, we'd have to
pry them out of the place. I can't imagine how much they would have owed.

Sorry about your fil. I'm happy he's at peace.

Dammit - he was one of RFC's characters and one of the most long
standing posters. I know he hadn't posted much in a very long time,
but his posts were and will be missed.

Hand salute, Moosie!

Oh gee, that makes me so sad. I know I dont post here very often but I
read regularly and for years when Ive had ribs or read recipes about
them ive thought of him. Well, Im sure he's aware of how highly he was
thought of, not just here but in his personal life. Bless his heart.
Maybe he'll help get the buffet ready for the rest of us when we get
there.

Come on. Just two ribs. This Sunday, I'm going to BBQ 6 racks of
ribs, but for Moosie, I'll trim off 2 ribs from the largest rack and
boil them. I just might post pictures on alt.binaries.food if I
remember to take some.

Oh Sue, I am truly sorry to hear this. Ed and I weren't exactly friends, but
he was an important part of r.f.c. and close to many folks here. I am
saddened and send my condolences to his family and his r.f.c. friends.

Unless you are really prepared for it, seeing someone after open heart
surgery ain't like it is in the movies. Your first view of the person is
devastating.

Looking out from inside ain't exactly a thrill either.

Moosie and I had a "pretend feud", and one of the ruses was that we'd
strafe each other if we crossed to the other's side of I-5. I live 7
miles from his house, and even met St Mavis there, once, and he'd been
to my house, too.

I always enjoyed reading his comments about St
Mavis. I always got the impression she had her
hands full with him (in a nice way!)

Remember his tale about driving Mavis to Dairy Queen for a Peanut Buster
Parfait? He made me laugh, I will miss him.

Someone mentioned his limericks, I will miss those too.

It's staggering how much they owed and to a ton of doctors most of whom we
never saw. It seems like every day a new doctor with a different specialty
"looked in on him" or read the chart or was on call on the 7th green and
sent a bill for several hundred dollars. It was staggering no wonder
Medicare is in trouble (raising rates). I don't want to get started but the
medical system here is broken.

From a long time lurker of RFC

Wendy

While I have been unpacking my kitchen (just moved from Boston to MN),
I have been reminiscing about conversations in rec.food.cooking when I
was a frequent poster (mid nineties up till 2000 or so, I guess). Just
yesterday, I found a special place to store the enormous lead-filled
meat mallet that Moosie made for me in his woodshop after hearing me
complain about the lightweight pounders in the supermarket. He also
sent two salad forks with roosters on them, along with a note reminding
me to study hard and that he knew I was a "good girl." I loved those
forks so much, I was afraid to use them. I think I've only set them on
the table once or twice in ten years, but I do rub mineral oil on them
to keep the wood supple.

Anyway, I remember the chicken leg story, and also his proclamation on
grape jelly: "I learned that it is best not to try every thing one
reads about here like grape jelly in meatballs." I am deeply saddened
to hear about his passing. I hate to ask, but is St. Mavis... still
around? Sue (or anyone), is there an address or something that I could
send a card?
