Only the good die young. Never got to see his grandchildren if I read the obit correctly.
My heart goes out to Shelley.
My heart goes out to Shelley.
Shed not for her
the bitter tear
Nor give the heart
to vain regret
Tis but the casket
that lies here,
The gem that filled it
Sparkles yet

Are you serious?
Lots of ways.
Then again, maybe you just want to know how HE died, but were too polite to ask directly.
So I'll ask: how'd he die?
He had gobs of money to use for the finest medical care, so I doubt his sudden death was from disease.
Probably some form of trauma.

Money does not save you from disease. I doubt he had more money than Steve Jobs.

How does a guy bet a 42K pick 6 and not hit the first leg?

Sorry to hear, didn't know he was your friend.
I hadn't heard of him till he hit the Pick-6. A lot of people were making awfully rude comments about him on the Drf website. I think they were just jealous of his success. Sorry for your loss.

Lol. Well, the 6 mil he hit was something like All-All-All-A,B-All-All. But he was smart. Figured everyone was saving their money for the next day which they were. Cost Gulfstream a solid 2 million dollars...

The key word was "suddenly."
Of course some form of virulent disease could have taken him, but generally speaking, with good medical care, the wealthy can live longer than can the poor.

he was really active- basically had a massive hard attack after a soccer game- other wise except for some of the casino party atmosphere he was healthy
as a side note used to go with him to the casino and roger king of kingworld- was legendary at the old baccarat games at the taj with the big games when roger would yell pull me a tie kid and ill give you two grey chips-
wish I was back at those days

If I remember correctly he was in some of the original MagicJack informercials with his son. I bought one after seeing the commercial on TV.

the Wiki article on him said he had a heart attack after a pick-up soccer game. Poor guy.
Quite a sharp inventor in the telecommunications area, and a joyous gambler.
Edit: coincided with a similar post. In any case, best wishes for his family.
