His wife posted the news on his Facebook a little earlier this morning. I know that he will be missed by many on here, especially the foodies.
FMB was one of the first people to really welcome me on here when I first joined and started posting regularly. I never met him in person, but he was one great guy and a fellow grammar Nazi.
:-)
I'm sure his wife would appreciate any thoughts or prayers.
RIP, Fire Me Boy!

RIP FMB :-)
Diabetes. Or complications from it. That’s what I was trying to remember.
I remember he posted something from the hospital a few years ago.

If memory serves, he had a foot/toes amputated a while ago.

Motherfucker.
Everything that came my way from that dude was first class.
Damn it. That one hits pretty hard. IIRC, I don't think he's that much older than I am.

Man, this always sucks to hear... I never exchanged jabs much with that guy, but from what I recall, he was a good dude. RIP
