Sad news, we've lost a member.

I've recently found out via Linda at my factoring company and from Jeremy Nimmo (Blizzard) that Phillip Valliere, known here as 60MPH, passed away on the 12th of this month. His mother called a couple people off his cell phone and I got calls from Jeremy and from Linda yesterday. No other details are known at the moment. Prayers and condolences to his family and friends.

Sorry to hear. Enjoyed his posts.

We traded a few PM's and I enjoyed his participation. He was a good forum participant. That's a shame.

Always a shame. I wonder how often it happens and we don't find out about it. I've been curious about another member who hasn't posted in a good while, used to be a regular.

Rest In Paradise brother.

That seems to happen quite a bit here on EO, kinda makes ya wonder what happened.

Rocketman · Feb 17, 2012

Yep...and of course, many leave the business or whatever. The one I'm thinking about wasn't struggling though and even seemed to be looking forward to the future although he was a fairly new poster. I'm going to check up on him if I can. I know we traded some pm's and I think he even called me. I'm going to check my phone.

Edit: mcavoy33 is who I was refering to. I did still have his number so I texted him. He got out of the truck at Christmas due to the fact he felt it wasn't good for his health. He's working a different job now, but doing fine.

After his stint driving for Bolt, Phil drove for us for a couple months while he was getting his authority in order. You couldn't ask for a more thorough professional.

Sad news. RIP.

Sad day. He and his family are in our prayers.

My Condolensces to the Family and Friends that are here reading up on this.........

It is said he passed on 2-12....He was posting here up until 2-7, just 5 days prior to his passing. I ran across this cause I was just catching up on reading a few threads and was in the Sprinter vs Cut-Away thread when his Smiley Face caught my eye. Looked above the Smiley Avatar, and there was "60MPH".

In Case anyone's wondering......here is his Avatar that is ALLL over this board.

Again, RIP 60MPH.......
