RIP Mazo Kid. This is sad news. I did not know him except for his posts but seemed like an amazing man.

Never interacted personally, other than maybe a PM or twelve on the '58 forum, but it was refreshing to see his postings. RIP Brother.

He was always “there for you”…as is so typical of this group… I am trying hard to articulate this , but his passing leaves a “space” in our community that can’t be quite filled by anyone else. And as sad as I am about  hearing this , I am grateful for the opportunity to have interacted and corresponded with  him here over the last few years. …. I don’t know how else to say it .

Agreed, very well said. His presence is definitely missed.

That's a fact. Well said Suntiger. He is sorely missed.

Just sitting here as many of us do realizing how many friends have passed over the years and dreading the news of those yet to pass before me. I remember when I blew the cylinder my ASM colt address walker, mazo told me he had a cylinder for it, I just had to cover the shipping. He was a great guy.

Yeah he was Bruce. I've gotten some stuff from him and I gave his some stuff. Not trades just giving stuff. I still need to do something with the cannon barrel he gave me. I wish I wasn't so lazy.
