Condolences to his family for the loss...  That is kind of a tragic he will never get the ring, yet at least he was able to attain perfection before his time came.  Hey, who says God isn't a bowler eh?

On a light note, I guess some people cannot handle the excitement of getting their first 300  Bad joke, I know.

I can only hope that the association has some sort of presentation ceremony that included the family...

The 300 rings are taken for granted in the bowling community, but I am sure he was thrilled to have finally thrown a perfect game.  His family deserves to have a positive parting memory from an activity that he obviously liked doing.

RIP

RIP.

At least he attained perfection before, along with after.

Some words the pastor said at my mother's funeral have stuck with me ever since.
When you hear the thunder, you know they're bowling, and throwing strikes!

That is really sad. I hate to hear about people dying, its just not fair. I agree with the headstone idea though. I think he would be honored looking down, and seeing that.
