Title: RIP Fathom
Post by: Zwart on March 22, 2016, 04:40:12 PM
I thought some of you should know:

Fathom, Canadian SEO PITA of SEOChat fame, has recently passed away.

I dunno the details, and I can't really be arsed to look em up because it's
just so very sad that he died and his former brushes with death now seem
utterly irrelevant.

Some but not all of you will know him.
Most of those will at some point have been verbally abused by him.

In fact he got me banned as a mod @ SEOChat at some point, the bastard!

He'll be sorely missed.

I didn't know him well, but it is sad to have a colleague pass.  Anybody know his age?

I paid for his training many moons ago, and never forgot him saying "you can sleep when your dead" as he was always working.
Well.... Sleep tight big fella.

I only 'knew' him from SEOChat, but I understand he used to be active @ WMW too (?)

He was quite active on WMW, particularly in the G forums iirc

Yeah.  I think I've known some here for like 17 years now.
