I'm not finding Williegoat postings anywhere except in the distance past.

Sure hope he's alright. I went to his "homepage" and it won't come up. Sent a private message, no response.
Anyone aware of anything? Did he just leave Pennocks?

I know he operates in the Phoenix area but, that's about it.

We know he was big into music jammer. We know he was a gear jammer. I used to kid him, calling him a gear grinder.

I do not think he was a recluse, in real life.

Does anybody know his real name ? We can get public records. Does anyone know anything about his off forum life ?

I think Cliff should suspend the rules for cross posting.

Aug 22, 2024 appears to be his last activity on PFF but, the search doesn't include politics/religion threads.

(For some reason, I am thinking Glendale Ariz is home for williegoat..)

Willie is no youngster. IIRC, he's older than I am and in a few months, I'll be 75.

Pretty sure you’re correct on Glendale, AZ. Seems like he told me that once.

I hope this is not the case They are finalizing the page.

EDIT..............
And after more research....it is him



And going to that address on Google shows his Fiero in the driveway.

Willie and I had a challenging time with any political discussion, but I enjoyed and appreciated his many music posts over the years. This is a thread that I especially remember... A barefoot girl with a banjo

My sincere condolences to Willie's friends and family.

Thanks for researching and posting that. Very sad.

Willie brought a lot to the conversations he participated in.

The whiskers has gone to rest......

Sincere condolences to his family and everyone he touched with his music.

Aw man......that is terrible. (Evidently, I was wrong about our age differences too)
He will be missed here.

I always wonder 'what happened' in these type sudden disappearances. It does appear, that a couple of months elapsed between his last post in OT and his death......a stroke maybe?

My wife has instructions to pass on information regarding my health and/or demise to about 6 different websites, either by logging on with my creds or a phonecall to someone else. Simply to avoid rumors that I may have (again) been abducted by aliens.

Oh no... this is horrible... I'm so sad to hear this... **** ... I didn't come back to this thread for a few days, and figured he was just busy doing things.

I'm so bummed... I can't even tell you. He was an excellent musician too. Damn man... I don't really have anything to say.

In the obit website's guestbook, I made a short comment and submitted the photo that Jake had posted farther up in this thread. I found it odd no one else from family or friends had posted anything, but that's how it is sometimes.

Don,
Thanks for bringing that up, didn't realize one could do that. Probably should have said something different but, it came from the heart.

So sad to hear.

October 29th 2024 ? It took us that long to notice his absence ? I am sure he was a rich man with family and friends. I know I liked him from other than his politics. Actually I should say I also respected him. I wish I was a fly on the wall during his memorial service.

What if Jane did not know you were abducted by aliens ? My Wife, Cindi, you know her, has the same instructions.

Thanks Don for the link ... https://obits.accucarecrema...com/william-marking.

I posted a thought there but screwed up. I entered it before I was done. It does not seem to allow edits.

I would hope one of us will instruct his family to know about all our feelings and opinions. It seems like I am only allowed one submittal.

Perhaps we can coach them through our "search" feature to read all about him.

I would have to look way back thru a lot of his posts to even determine how large his family was. He was pretty private. I can't recall mention of wife/kids etc.

I recently (Dec-Jan) went thru this on another website with a member that was in his 80s, a widower, Korea War veteran, USMC. All us old vets check in there almost every day, some times more than once per day. It was 2 weeks between the time he said he posted he was having health issues and we found out he had died. Because of his stature as a Korean vet, we all knew him. He had been there a long time. (There are about 50,000 Marine vets on that website, 2.5 million vets total.) It's hard to suddenly see a void.

Does anyone know Willie's YouTube channel? He had a couple of really cool songs, and I wanted to check them out again...

He posted them several times, but for some reason I cannot find them now...

UGH. I was wondering why he went 'silent', RIP Williegoat.

I left a message a few days ago, on one of his videos. I was a subscriber...... He was talented, playing all the instruments on his songs! More that I can ever do.

I was checking, it doesn't seem like he's posted on there since late 2016.
