I confess to being a little surprised that the death of Michael Bracken (Mudcatter Brakn) has not been more widely noted on here. He posted since 2011 according to Dave the Gnome's listing and had many contributions to make to our discussions.

Let's hear it for Brakn!

I am sending my condolences to all those who know and love him. I have also added his name to the "In Memoriam" thread. RIP Michael.
