Absence

[edit]

Hello, while lurking around I saw some of your contributions and then noticed that you were away since 2018. This is only a message to thank you for your contributions and welcome you back, if you have the time and are still alive. —PaleoNeonate05:27, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I've been checking back here for quite some time, hoping to see if you're around, and I haven't seen any news elsewhere online. I, too, hope you are happy with whatever you are doing now, and I fondly remember all the times you were very helpful to me. --Tryptofish (talk) 20:39, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

If Looie496 is indeed gone then a worthy foe has passed. My respect and admiration for him was substantial, but it shall not deter me from my work. RubleTuesday (talk) 17:21, 21 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

RIP Looie496

[edit]

I just found out, belatedly, that Looie496, aka Bill Skaggs, died of a heart attack in 2020 (maybe earlier, the source implies it might have been earlier, and he abruptly stopped editing in 2018): [1], last paragraph. He was a wonderful neuroscientist, a wonderful member of the Wikipedia community, and a wonderful friend. He will be greatly missed. --Tryptofish (talk) 21:27, 17 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
