I have no idea who knows this but I just received an email from Cuchulain
Libby's sister Morgan that he passed away in his sleep on Wed. night. I have no information other than they are having a graveside service in San Antonio on Tue. at the Holy Cross Cemetery. I will pass on info as I get it. _________ ht_redneck Aka: Tyler Hopper P.S. - I had the smoker going for a cook but I'm going outside to shut it down right now. It shall remain cold for a period of mourning. |

There's no way I can be at the service, though I'd give almost anything to be. Would you place a flower on his grave for me? I'm thinking a habanero blossom would be appropriate. If only I'd known that the last time I saw him would be the last time I saw him...... TFM® |

I just returned from a business trip this evening to receive the same
e-mail. The loss of two great people of this group in such a short time astounds me.

It shall remain cold for a period of mourning. I didn't know Hound in real life, but the Hound that I knew on the net would want all of us to fire up the pit and cook some good food and share it with others. That's what I'm planning to do, in Hound's honour. Texas Brisket, fat down, toward the fire. BOB |

I asked his sister if there will be a funeral service but haven't heard back from her. _________ ht_redneck P.S. - My apologies for posting to the group without checking to see if anyone else had. Hound would have severely chastised me. |

Some have asked how old he was.
44 to the best of my recollection. Way too young to die. TFM® |

It shall remain cold for a period of mourning. Y'know, I just thought of something one of my dad's friends said to me not long after he passed. He said 'You can tell a lot about the quality of a man by how his friends remember him.' It made me feel better then, and I'd say that if these posts are any measure, then Cuchulain Libby deserves to be remembered as one of the very best. James |

I didn't ever meet him in person, but I remember his kindness to me about two years ago after a post in one of these two newsgroups when I said something about being in a wheelchair and setting up my equipment at our new house. I'm sure he thought I was temporarily in the roller and he wrote and offered to smoke a butt and a brisket for me and bring them over. I thanked him and explained that it wasn't a short-time thing, and that I was doing a pretty good job of getting set up on my new patio. I never did make it to one of those sat.food gatherings at Bullpepper's (except the very first "soft opening" in 1999), although I think he did. It is beyond irony that we lost both Hound and Jerry Jungmann (owner of Bullpepper's, for those who don't know) within a month of each other. I think I'll manufacture a few whiffs of smoke next Tuesday. David |

![]() Apologies for piggybacking. Sad news indeed. I mostly lurk here and Cuchulain was one poster that I always read. My condolences to his family and friends. Tomorrow I will make a burnt offering to the Cue Gods on Cuchulain's behalf. Tonite I will smoke a fine 8 year old Davidoff Anniverserio #1 in his honor. Bill |

What happened? How old was he? I've been in and out of this newsgroup for a couple of years, and Cuch was always the "nice" and knowledgeable guy in the group. Bless his heart. A smile comes to my face when he posted a Christmas cheer to everyone last year when he must have been on the whiskey and he yelled, "I love you guys!" (or something similar.) Carry on my friend. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. We're just travelers................. RIP, Spud |

I don't post much, but I read everything, and it brought tears to my eyes. My condolences to his family and friends. Live every day like it was your last, and enjoy them all. Jon E |
