akroorka Posted Tuesday at 08:43 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 08:43 PM Fires wife contacted me about some bad/sad news. Fire died as a result of some injuries that he received while on the Ice rink. He was a good marble buddy of mine. Yes, he may have raised some ire here and there over the years but—he was always very passionate about marble collecting. I always appreciated that in him. Fire was a “Fire Jumper” in his earlier years. Funny how that went from jumping out of planes to fight fires to becoming a Zamboni driver for the Colorado Eagles. I will miss his wit and wisdom along with his attempts at becoming more amicable in the marble collecting community. My thoughts are with his wife and daughter—and his chickens-lol. Marble—On Rick Robbins (@Fire 1981) We will all miss you---so sad—so sad!! 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parmcat Posted 19 hours ago Report Share Posted 19 hours ago This really bothers me...a lot. Rick really embraced me when I was new around here. We chatted a fair bit in dms and he was extremely generous with his time, and specifically with me. I noticed he hadn't been around, and just yesterday sent him a DM to check in. RIP Rick. My thoughts go out to his family. So sad 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
