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!

sorry to hear about this,
[USERGROUP=3]@Administrative[/USERGROUP] maybe we can change him to "memoriam" like Mikey
 
He was only 48?!! Wow...this is terrible.

Family will be in my 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.
 
Very shocking and truly sad indeed!
 
I am sorry to read that Dan passed away and at such a relativley young age.
 
Wow, so sad to hear.

Damn that sucks. I just watched his Nascar experience video in memorium.
 
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.
