We are in need of someone to take over the maintenance of the MMB. Yosef has done it for a long time, and we are grateful for all he has done, but life happens and he no longer has the time to devote to its upkeep. If anyone here is interested in helping to keep the board running, please let me know via DM.

Jack Murphy

Not sure how to even approach and ask this, or if it’s appropriate here, but did something happen to Jack? There have been some very sad and cryptic messages about him on IG. It appears something very tragic has happened, but can’t confirm anything. I pray everything is okay, but doesn’t sound good.

Yes. Long history. I’m shaken to the core. Can’t fathom.

What do you mean long history?

This is so sad though. Prayers to his family, friends, and the team. Can’t imagine what they’re all going through

Neither can I. Obviously the posts here allude to something everyone would dread.

I would stress patience. In situations like this, information comes out at a trickle.

Terribly sad. Heartbreaking.

Let’s respect the young man and keep any speculative stuff off the board.

Why is that picture in that article, is there no shame in "journalism".

Deepest sympathies for his family and the Mountaineer family.

That's up to the family.

Please everyone, just be patient and let things settle for a little while.

I know most of the time the family wants to keep things out of the media. But to me no matter what it is, it needs to be brought to light so that others can possibly avoid the same. Maybe they will discuss more later but up to them. And admittedly I'm probably a bit numb or a little too used to death over the years, so I'm probably not normal in my opinion.
