I am saddened by this news. This was a big loss for the community. One thing is for certain... he will live on in my costume. My knees, back armor, kidney and cod, and gauntlets are all RKD's.
When he said that he was not taking any more orders, I felt for him, but didn't realize it was goodbye. He made sure everyone was taken care of first, which to me speaks volumes for his character. I still can't believe he is gone.
