Im sorry, i have really tragic news...
Hi everyone. My name is Jen Haigh and i am Bob Haigh's daughter. AKA PB or Pushbutton. There is no easy way to tell you guys that ty dad passed away tonight. He was cleaning the gutters on Mon afternoon because it was easier to do in the rain supposedley. I was away and my mom didnt even know he was on the roof. He fell and had a brain hemmoriage, because of the cumidin for his blood it was so thin. If they did the surgery to drain the hem. he would bleed to death, so they pumped him with plasma and it never got better, he was already gone, his brain stopped. This is really akward for an email. I don't know any of your addresses and i cant figure out his email password. He loved you guys so much, he showed me pictures of all you crazy guys and would let me read the funny stories. I have to say this was a huge part of his life. Unfortunatley life is so tragic. I am doing ok, off and on, i am trying to stay strong because i know thats what he would want. He was very loved. IT is SOOOOOOO FUCKING HARD! I know this sucks for u guys cuz i know some live so far. There will be a memorial in Milton MA this wknd. I am taking his knife collection and going to cherish them and keep them forever and ever. I am going to study them and try to learn every detail like he did. It was his passion. I dont really know what else to say but all i could think of in the hospital was how i needed to tell you guys. If anyone wants to email me please do jenniferhaigh@rcn.com, you can even call me, 617 529 2161. I loved him soooo much. we had this very close connection, i am exactly like him, our 11 year old sense of humor and his good looks . i just graduated from school 2 wks ago and i know he was very proud of me. I miss him so much. im sorry.

This is a huge shock. Pushbutton is one of the cornerstones of this forum and it won't be the same here without his knowledge, wit, and wisdom.
God bless the Haigh family. You're in my thoughts and prayers. He meant so much to his friends here.
Jen, we're greatful to you for this post on his behalf. Much love to you and your family.
My deepest condolences to all his good buddies here. I'm so sorry.
In memory of Pushbutton.

oh my god! i can't believe it - i've been thinking about bob alot over the past few days...
wondering why he hasn't returned any of my PM's...
my deepest sympathies to you and the rest of your family - bob was a special man i grew very fond of, and thought of him as a true friend...
BOB where ever you are - may you rest in peace, my flag will fly at half mast for you - and after i bowl a few lanes (private joke between me n bob) in your honor, i'm going to perform a special 21 switch salute!
adios ace

I have only been active in this forum since February (as McEowen) but I have come to really appreciate and look forward to Pushbutton's comments. He was a real joy. I'm saddened to hear this tragic news.
I don't know if this is appropriate or not but I believe God (or if you prefer, the creator) remembers and seals the souls of people who have keep something good (something of him) clean and pure within their hearts. Pushbutton's sense of humor tells me he had a lot of good in him.
My thoughts are with you and yours through this difficult time. I hope you find the peace to carry you through.

Just one more and I'll stop . . . honest!
Jennifer - You and your family have my deepest sympathy at this hard time. Pushbutton was an essential part of this forum and it won't be the same without him.
Treasure his knife collection as much as he did, but more importantly, treasure your memories of your wonderful father,
In my thoughts and prayers,
Harry
