Our beloved "Hip" has moved on

I'm very sorry to announce the passing of our very good friend Roger "Hip" Hood. I received this e-mail this morning:

Mr. Miller I'm so sorry to say that my good friend of over 50years Roger "Hip" Hood passed away in his sleep in New Albany Indiana sunday 10-8-06.
He thought a lot of you guys and I know how much you all cared about him.

He's left some great memories for us all. I'm so very glad he had the experience in Indy with Whit this year prior to graduating on to the next level, shall we say. I'll really miss this great guy!

I'm gonna miss Hip too. We lost ForceFanJohn last year if memory serves. Always sad to see such good people go. I wish there was some way for us to memorialize our lost friends. This is too sad.

A true fan he was indeed.
Prayers for Hip's family.
