|
I'm afraid it falls to me to announce the recent demise on 1st September 2010 of Tim Stone;
aka " EW_Rang".
Rang was, well he was just Rang.
Unequalled sense of humour and scourge of the CFS1 desert sky in a 1-v-1 or furball.
If he couldn't shoot you down, he'd simply fly into you.
Sometimes he'd do that anyway.
Sometimes he'd shoot you down for being on his team!
But one way or another, you'se goin' down and you'se goin' down laughing.
Leader of the apes, or EW (the Elite Wing) he was enormously respected in CFS1 and while others claimed to be "the cutest" claims of Rang being "the bashiest" were brushed aside with feigned hurt and dismay.
Whatever, he was one of the most honourable and entertaining players and took his share of responsibility for the more enjoyable side of CFS1 online.
He was my friend, mentor, and C/O of my ape tag.
¤§¤ Old ape friend

Gone ahead to the great Nana-Tree-In-The-Sky.

This is how Rang saw himself and often posted this image to other squads' websites, when asked for photo's.

~S~ Rang. You were a good friend and a big help to me in CFS. We had fun picking on Vines and lots of laughs over the years. Fly well, my friend

I have no doubts that Rang will be chasing the female angels all over heaven, and being as evil as only Rang could be. Even if he went to the place below, i bet he is doing the same thing there, lol {8=)
Rest well old buddy, we be with you sometime, take care and fly well my bro.
