He was a headache to moderate when I was running the board way back when. But never once did I doubt his passion for our university. I hope his passing was as easy as is possible. Prayers to his family.

RIP, NewApp
Based on the comments here and on his obituary, it seems like he had an impact on a lot of people. That’s what it’s all about.
It is funny to me that, although I never met him in person, the picture in his obituary is exactly what I expected. That’s not meant as an insult.

ya'll are certainly being gracious, which is good, although it reflects poorly on me. Was not a fan of his constant posts that had nothing to do with App, and his baiting. But to a fellow Mountaineer, RIP.

Did he make a difference , did his life impact anyone ? Here? Elsewhere ? I believe the answer to be an obvious YES.So well done Mr Cline , your life mattered , you left your mark and we will remember you .

I had several off-line conversations with him as we both were on the Board for many years and being the same age we had experienced and lived thru some huge changing times for our world - he was an OK Guy - I was very sorry to read the news

No he did not, his daughter-in-law did.

Just to clarify, it seems his daughter in law passed of ALS, she did not kill him.

I did think that when it was first posted though. I'm thinking that is a hell of a way to go out, by the daughter in law.

He goes back to the Delphi forums days (pre-2012), so he's been around and following App for a long time.
Everybody messing with him back on that old forum was priceless. He loved the rage-baiting it seemed.

I read it 3 times, then went back and read the obituary to make sure 😂

Can someone please post something positive!!!!!
Seems MrCraig was the only one paying attention in NewApp class. I tribute posted the above quote (One of my NewApp Favorites) it's from Cline himself last year. One of the few I actually thought was funny at the time. It seemed fitting for this moment and I thought would have been his style message in this type of bad news thread. RIP Brother
