RIP Canyon Critter

Forums:

Hi folks,

It's with a heavy heart that I forward the news of Canyon Critter's passing.  I've been seeing through FB today that he passed away from complications due to a recent heart attack.

I first started chatting with CC through Dead.net in about '07 or '08 and he became part of a small crew of great people I "hung" with for a while there.  

He posted on the Zone a bit and I'm sure there are many here who have interacted with him and should know this.

 

RIP Scott.

Damn! Furthur Fest videos are really not happening. So sorry to his family.Rest in Peace, Canyon. 

I still crack up thinking of his GD50 FTW ticket meltdown. I gave him shit about that - he took it well.

Didn't know the guy at all, but obviously much much too young. Peace to his family and loved ones.

Here's CC's page of the videos he made

I first met Scott at charity poker events in the Chicago area. When I found out he was very interested in the Grateful Dead we immediately hit it off and became freindly. He was actually the person who got me interested in philzone. he told me the story where his parents took him to his first grateful Dead concert at 6 years old, that concert which was 12/31/85 or.12/31/84.,  so that would make him about 38 or 39 years old. He worked at a golf course as a golf instructor in Naperville Illinois.  He told me that he knew people at the Grateful Dead ticket office and offered to get me tickets a few times to some of the further shows.  even though we are casual acquaintances he always treated me as a friend he even encouraged me to go with them in a camper to be on a Bonnorroo one year.  the last time I remember talking to him was before the 50th anniversary shows at Soldiers field.  He mentioned that they were getting a hotel room in downtown Chicago and that a bunch of people were staying there and that I was also invited. Does anybody know his cause of death?

So sad to hear:(

Here it is, one of his friends posted it on fb...

Thanks for the links.  Some good memories in there.  Thanks, CC.

Way, way too young. RIP Zoner.

Sad.

Nice guy. We need more like him, not less.

(Far right in photo.)

He was a zoner for sure.

We all have our time.

Celebrate it.

BTW, at 23:30 in that cool Futhurfest video that sure looks like Louie Fuckin' Lardo playing guitar with some other folks. Could that be hoover in that shot as well?

I ran into LFL at that event and he said he was hanging with hoover and others.

Things just go round & round, don't they?

{{{Thoughts and Prayers}}}

For all his friends, Family and other loved ones!

Peace

yep, that's Louie in our camp w/Hoover on the right on guitar (Turtle about to do up some 'boat)

Turtle does love the boat, doesn't he?

I think that was a good time for all involved, including the now departed Louie Lardo and Canyon Critter.

Good times are a good thing.

Let's all have some more of those.
