Raindrop has passed, Sunshine from now on

[Gary W. Graley]

While I posted this also in the Community section, more members may remember him from this part of the forum;

Folks on the forum may know of Raindrop, aka Greg Sprinkel, lived in Salt Lake City
and was a major Sebenza fan as well as a Busse aficionado.

For a long time now he's suffered with Lou Gehrig's Diease and this morning I was
informed that he has past away, peacefully in his sleep.

He suffered for quite a while, a very dibilitating diease, not one you'd wish on any person.

No funeral services are made yet, the obituary will probably be in the Salt Lake Tribune....


He had a very special Sebenza graphic made up, as his nickname was Raindrop, play on his last name of Sprinkel;

and special attention even on the lockbar side;

If you have ever witnessed the progress of ALS or other MD disease, it absolutely ravages a person's body. Thank you for posting this tribute and for the pictures of his meaningful knife.

May he rest in peace. He had an amazing collection and I did pass emails with him from time to time.

Very sad news indeed. We communicated a good while back regarding some Chris Reeve knives which I later purchased. I think of him whenever I look at them. RIP.

Thank you Gary for taking the time to pass on the news and your tribute. You should be proud of your efforts on his behalf.
