Unfortunately I never had the opportunity to meet him but I did enjoy and learn quite a bit from his articles and vids. Sad loss.

He chose to go out on his own terms. May he rest in peace.
Amen, I had never heard of him before, seems like a good egg after doing some searches on him. RIP and I wish peace on his family and loved ones, not an easy thing to deal with.Quote:

To echo what Mick & sp said; he is a loss to all of us, but may he RIP.
I have heard many great things of him; I'm sorry I did not meet, let alone get some training by, the "yoda".
As in suicide or otherwise?Quote:

I read an interview where he said the only thing he feared in life was losing control of his body and being cognizant of that fact. Talk about foreshadowing, huh?Quote:

Mr Awerbuck was an instructor I always *meant* to train with. Now that it's too late I'm sorry I didn't make the trip.
R.I.P. gunfighter. Catch you on the flip side.
Louis was a great instructor and a true gentleman. I'm proud to have gotten to know him over the years and will miss the professional @ss chewing he could give in his classes. R.I.P. Yoda.
He will be missed for sure.
