R.I.P. catshm2

floydp · 04-08-2017, 11:17 PM

There was a feller that used to be called the Sneaky Bombin Bastage from the old CS days that passed away on March 10, 2017.

He went by catfishm2 on CS. Mark Dalton was my best friend and I write this with a heavy heart. We shared many a cigar and adult beverage over the years. Both in person and on Skype.

He was a big man with a big heart. A great friend. Anita called him a gentle giant. Honest and Unpretentious. What you saw is what you got. Salt of the earth. We are both going to miss him terribly.

Our Skype Herf (which has been ongoing for over 12 years now) will never be the same without the calm deep voice of Mark. We will make this get together he wanted happen to toast our missing brother. RIP Mark, and know you will be missed.

My deepest condolances.

Very sad news, Frank.
Condolences to you and Anita.

I remember him well from the Club Stogie days.

Sounds like a guy I wish I'd known. Sympathy to his family and friends.

Rest in peace

May He Rest In Peace. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends.

I was fortunate enough to share a few cigars with Mark in my early Club Stogie days. He is exactly as Frank describes him. I wish I would have gotten to have one more. R.I.P. My Friend.

bobarian · 04-09-2017, 06:53 PM

Rest In Peace

croatan · 04-10-2017, 10:36 AM

I sure miss those old Friday night skype herfs. Mark was an absolutely great guy. I knew you were tight, Frank, so my condolences to you and Anita. Hope you guys are doing well otherwise, though.

We've lost too many good folks here recently.

galaga · 04-10-2017, 11:55 AM

my deepest condolences Frank. Godspeed.

SmokeyJoe · 04-10-2017, 01:56 PM

So sorry for your loss, Frank. Seems we have lost several among our ranks here of late. Peace and comfort be upon Mark Dalton's friends and family.

Havanaaddict · 04-10-2017, 02:01 PM

He sounds like a great guy, I am sorry I never got to know him!!!
May he "Rest In peace"

stearns · 04-10-2017, 02:34 PM

RIP Mark

Mr.Maduro · 04-10-2017, 09:48 PM

Terrible news. I remember bombing each other back on Club Stogie. My condolences go out to all who had the pleasure of knowing him.

I'm sorry to hear about the passing of Mark. I never had the opportunity to meet with him, and he sounds like he was one hell of a congenial BOTL. My prayers out to his family, and to you and Anita...
