One of our own is gone

[Z]

Here's to the once and future minty, king of the Cubbie fans.

You are missed, though hopefully at peace. Z

Bummer.

I hope his family is coping .

I was under the impression that Minty was still in his fifties?

Farewell mint.

[Gutenberg]

The Cubs were in first place when Minty died, and I am strangely comforted by that. Sleep well.

[Filliam H. Muffman]

This is very sad to hear. I was really hoping that he was going to be able to turn things around.

Mint, I hope you're finally out of the basement.

[cbelt3]

Requiescat in Pacem, our friend.

We tried to ease your earthly pain,
with rumor, chat, and comments vain

We shared your joy, we shared your sorrow
And now we cannot share tomorrow

[MacArtist]

Oh my God!

I was hoping/praying 'Minty would find peace; but not this way.

He will be missed.

[D-Rod]

Wow! What a shock. I hope you find the peace you were looking for Mint. RIP

[Michael]

So sorry to hear. Bad news.

[DavidS]

WOW! Thanks for the news, as horrible as it is. His is the third death this week of someone I've known (or in his case "known").

I hope that he has peace now. I believe, he was having family issues since the passing of his mother. I hope that he has been reunited with her and is happy.

R.I.P.
