I find it sad any time a pro at who had a hot girlfriend passed away young. I just think of how much oral sex he could have given her.

I would say pros with kids. But which pros have kids? ???

Honestly not many, they know the business they are in.

It's the regular folks that always catch me -

Marianna Komlos was a very active, semi famous member here in the old days. I remember being sad when she passed -

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marianna_Komlos .


The one that caught me really bad was an older man named J V Askem, who was Jesse Marunde's coach for many years. He got sick while was writing a history of Olympic Lifting, and a few other things, and it was hard to watch him dying while trying to get things done -

The medical updates -

http://www.ontariostrongman.ca/jva/MED5.htm .

His actual training page - http://www.ontariostrongman.ca/jva/index.htm .

Nope. Don Ross.  So sad...

Loved the bodybuilding life for 25+ years. Gave everything he had to the world of bodybuilding. Loved the sport. Helped hundreds of people get in shape. Love nutrition, fitness and bodybuilding. After 25+ years he had almost nothing. Nothing...

...Then after being a featured writer and photographer for so many years he became the Editor & Chief for Muscular development.  $70,000 per year.  Company car.  Expense account. Paid travel.  After all those years of work and getting amost nothing-  he did it! Six months later he had a massive heart attack and died.
