Oh no, I can't believe it. It seems like he was posting just the other day. I never actually talked to Serehill but I know I used his posts to troubleshoot the Jeep and learn a bunch of times. Praying for his family.

I can't say anything that hasn't already been said. We have lost a very valuable member of this community. His legacy will live on in many jeeps.

Sad news. That name was kind of rockstar status around here.

That's a very nice and somewhat comforting thought. :fsj:

Wow. Sad news. Great guy. I've spoken with him a few times on the phone pretty recently when wiring up the two harnesses I purchased from him. Prayers for his family. He will be missed.

Logged in for the first time in a while today and just saw this. Rick helped me several times with wiring issues on my old Golddigger. He was a great guy to call and talk to. What a huge loss to everyone but especially his family. Condolences to everyone that knew and depended on him.

Reminds me when Ratmonkey on the Jeepforum.com site passed away in a car accident.. He knew A TON about ZJ's i learned alot from him when i first started with Jeeps about 7-8 years ago. Its scary how you can still find their posts and guides online.

I am sorry to bring up an older and unhappy post. I was looking at my inbox today, it's full and I have to delete some messages, and there were some messages from him regarding contributing to raffles. I just couldn't delete them.

He was a great guy and is still missed.
