I just learned from his wife, that Dan Pilgrim, a former and well liked and respected member of this forum, died on Nov 26th. I dont know the circumstances, but it was a great shock. Though we never met, Dan and I developed a wonderful friendship. He was a loving husband and father! He was a patriot, and a loyal friend. Please keep his wife and family in your prayers!

Very sorry to hear of @AZDANSX230HO's passing.

Dan was instrumental in the early recruiting for this forum.

He recently posted about the new boat he was planning to buy. I wish he had been able to enjoy it.

Dan had publicly stated that he had an issue with blood thickening that had required careful monitoring and treatment.

@Scottintexas, I updated Dan's profile.

Wow. So sorry to hear. He just sold his boat and was about to buy a bigger boat. He just had a wedding and added family member. Thoughts and prayers is all I can say.

Holy shit. :(


brb going to the gym and whole foods and studying raw veganism and pouring out all my bee.....err, maybe not that last part. But dam. This hits home for real. Dan was a stand up dude. A little blunt for some people, but we got along great and I enjoyed chatting with him.
