Ken Aldred Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Sad news. Didn’t really know him on here, but very clear we had similar tastes in our comic book interests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

picon3 Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Was shocked when I read this posting. Last time we interacted was a PM where we were discussing missing each other at the Greenville ComicCon last year. Please let me (and of course other board members) know what we can do to help out his family at this terrible time. He will definitely be missed.

Joey is going to speak with his wife on Tuesday, as Thomas told her to call him if anything happened with him so maybe he'll have more details after he speaks with her.

Popular Post Hey Kids, Comics! Posted April 30, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 30, 2023 Just stunned. I just talked with him Friday (as I did almost daily). We hung out in February in Charleston and a BUNCH at SCComiccon two weeks ago. I don’t think there was a nicer guy in the hobby. He always seemed to put others needs before his own and was always looking out for other people in their quests to upgrade or complete 9.8 sets. We had just started a business partnership (along with Joey) a few months ago. He was concerned with nothing more than making sure that Joey and I made our money and he was always willing to take a smaller cut to insure that happened. He even submitted his own books into the deal and still split the profits equally. Just a sweetheart of a man who was so well respected in the community…especially in the Southeast where he was a frequent visitor to the con scene. Rest easy, Brother. I love you.

I couldn’t agree more. He gifted me this Cap #148 back in 2022 at the Rock Hill show. Though, I initially declined, he insisted that I have it. As a gift from him.

GAFLASH Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 Thomas was a good friend with whom I shared lots of text conversations. We were both supportive of each other's endeavors. He was instrumental in helping me acquire several big purchases. Thomas loved the hobby. May he rest in peace and forever in our hearts and memories.

toro Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 Wow, I am so shocked. I don't interact all that often directly with people on the boards, but I reached out to him on a subject last month and have had a running conversation since then. I thought this was a man who really loved this hobby and was just a real nice guy. My prayers and condolences go out to his family at this time.
