Message MiguelMandingo 08:08 Wed 6/5/2013 This is just a note to say that I will be at the Draught House tonight, June 5th around 6:00ish, to have some drinks and reflect on our good friend, Walt Powell. If anyone wants to join me, drink, and share some stories, that’s where I’ll be. I’ll likely bring something sour to honor his memory. Please spread the word on Facebook, Twitter, etc.
Message MiguelMandingo 13:25 Wed 6/5/2013 Sorry to bump. Just wanted to make sure people see this.
Message MilkmanDan beers 1942 º places 20 º 14:01 Wed 6/5/2013 Pinned it to the top so everyone can see it easier. I’ll be toasting our munchkin mascot myself at home. Don’t think I could make it to Austin quite in time.

Message degbert beers 1824 º places 19 º 14:58 Wed 6/5/2013 I can’t get away. I wanted to. Will there be a more formal RB wake? ’Cause I wanna be there, beers in hand.
Message legion242 beers 2345 º places 122 º 16:42 Wed 6/5/2013 I would imagine that the funeral will be here in Dallas. Whether or not its open to the public, I don’t know yet. His family might be a little overwhelmed by the FB response. If it is public, I expect a very nice wake, probably only RB folks since even I never met his folks. I can’t have it at my place, but as soon as details of the funeral become available, I will move heaven and earth to find someplace for us to gather. No need for whales, just some Orval and some memories.
Message IrishBoy P beers 4706 º places 141 º 17:23 Wed 6/5/2013 I will have to join you all in spirit mourning all our loss
