Subject: Very sad news for the Mossbacks

Posted by: Barbarini
Date: Aug 14 20

I am heartbroken to tell you that one of our dearest members, knud77, has passed away. He loved this site so much. He had retired from the New York police department a number of years ago and found a new - and much less hazardous - vocation in playing trivia. He was very proud to consider himself an International Trivia Player. A lovely man. He will be so missed.

RIP Judder.

I am so very, very sorry to hear it. Every time someone passes away here on FT it hits me hard, even if I hadn't had any contact with them. My sincerest condolences to all of you in the Mossbacks, and warm thoughts of sympathy to his loved ones.

My condolences to the Mossbacks, and to knud's family. He was a formidable player, always at or near the top in games. I'll miss trying to outscore him.

Condolences from me to your team and his non-FT friends and family if they should be directed to look here. I never had any personal contact with knud77 but know the screen name well through seeing scores in games etc.

I recognize his name from so many different quizzes and games.
He sent several complimentary notes on some of my quizzes.
I'm very sorry for you and your teammates.
R.I.P.

I am so, so sorry to hear this. I had the privilege of being one of his team mates for a few years and experienced first hand what a thoroughly good man he was. A true gentleman in every sense of the word.

My sympathy and condolences go out to his friends and family for their loss. RIP

I too had the pleasure of knowing knud77, when he was a member of Pi. He was indeed a lovely man and I know he will be very much missed by his family and all at FT who knew him. He was always kind and thoughtful, with never a bad word to say about anyone and I shall remember him for his kindnesses, which were many. My very deepest sympathy to his wife and family, and of course to the Mossbacks on their loss of a valued teammate. RIP to a good man and one of life's true gentlemen.

Thank you all for your kind and lovely words. He was beloved. There'll be a huge, knud-shaped hole in our lives, that's for sure. I will pass your messages on to his wife. She knew that FT was a huge enjoyment for him. They will be balm for her soul.
