Unhappy Sad news.. Dr. Dave Magliaro (docicu) gone

Have the sad responsibility of reporting Dr. Dave's unexpected passing. The news came inadvertently to Jack (Slews My Hero) last week through correspondence with Dave's wife. He was a great fan and loved to play the game. He was here with us all from the start of Derby Trail and some of us got to know him in person, especially Hooves when he was working for a stretch near Maryland. He was very supportive of everyone's horseplaying and always appeared sincerely happy when someone did well. And of course whenever there was a traumatic jockey injury, 'docicu' was on hand to let us know what to expect. Will be missed... RIP Doc.

A doctor that genuinely cared about people. A rare thing.

What happened Steve?
