We lost a brother this weekend...
 
Our association lost an official on Saturday. He was a 22 year old rookie with lots of officiating potential. He was a quick learner and learned from his mistakes and always had questions about anything he thought he might be doing wrong in a game. He will be missed.

Not quite sure Mike. I had worked a few games with him, and was scheduled for a couple more when I got an email from TheArbiter saying he had been removed. Shortly thereafter I got an email from our association saying that he passed on Saturday. That's all I know.
