Gino Bruzzese Jr. has passed away

[Tesla]

I thought it would be best to post this here about Gino. I've been wondering why he hasn't been active on the forum recently...his last post was on Sept. 7. He was a great modeler and contributor.

Here's the link to his obituary: http://obituaries.pressherald.com/obituaries/mainetoday-pressherald/obituary.aspx?page=lifestory&pid=181971507

RIP my friend

Although I never had much contact with Gino, I did love to check out his builds & he was always posting wonderful comments about everyones builds.  I feel bad for his family for losing him at such a young age..RIP

Wow...thats a tragedy. Gino was a great builder. This is kind of a shock. Hopefully his models go to a good home. My thoughts are with his family.

Condolences to his family. May he rest in peace.

Very sorry to hear that. I always enjoyed his builds and comments.

His passing reminds us all that we are only here for a relatively short time. Make good use of the time you have here. You never know when your time will come.

 

 Be Well

I'm really saddened by this news.  I liked Gino, a great friendly attitude and he showed lots of interest for other guys' models.  I gathered he was a happy family man too and enjoyed building trucks.  Truly sad news.

Rest in peace Gino!

I loved following him on his projects and as he posted updates. I didn't really know him that well but knew him by his builds on here. When I saw that avatar of his in this thread it shocked me. Prayers goes out to his family and friends.

Just a thought now.  I'm watching on Netflix the 'Shawshank Redemption'. 

A while back I PM'd Gino if the 'tree' really was in Buxton, where Gino was from and where he lived.  He told me the story and no....anyways, we had some decent conversations, and I remember the red/beige 352 he was working on.  I really liked the paint combo.  I was eyeballing a similar paintjob for the project back then.  His was better.

So sad when someone you knew of passes on.
