    That has to be the most unique obituary I have ever read.

    I remember my first visit at "hitchworld". Went there and thought I got some shitty virus on my computer.

    We all went a long way here. Sad to see some of the vets go. But good to see the others gather at the funeral.

    I thought it was probably his son who did end up posting at HW after being a lurker from a very young age if I remember correctly.

    For those wondering, about 1/3 of the website was deleted by an out of control webbie.
    A bunch of great threads here were ruined. I have no clue what this person was thinking.
    Anyways, I will miss the brilliant hitchBRAIN.
    That dude was unique.

    Does anyone know what the rant about the mobility scooter was?

    I've wanted to drop in here since I heard the news. I just read Icon's epic rant, and I don't really have much more to say than that. Packed in a box back in Raleigh is a stack of stuff that Hitch has sent me over the years, since I met him the first time, for a beer, on a layover.

    Our site, this here Roth Army, is built on personality, and none set that tone more than Hitch. If I could tell you the amount of time I spent talking to him off the site. We honestly didn't have a ton of on-site interaction...we just stayed out of each other's way, or planned trolling on occasion. He reached out to me a few times over the past few years, to ask me about "life," and "balance."

    During our tenure at the Roth Army, hitch would often send me messages, or drop me a phone call, letting me know that there was a war afoot. It wasn't really a respect thing, just a, "Hey, this is going on friend."

    What utterly shocked me often, was that in real life, he quite honestly shifted in and out of his Hitch persona...or shifted in and out of his non-hitch persona. He at one point, would email me on a daily basis trying to get me back into the fray. Then one day, "Yo POJ', I get it. I totally get it." He never asked again.

    In the end, hitch was part of what made this place grate...

    RIP Hitch...and fuck you...it wasn't me...for the last fucking time...

    Hey everyone, sorry to hear bout hitch. I have fond memories of this place and the DDLR forum and he was a major presence, back in the day. Hard to believe it was so long ago, now.

    Nice to see everyone.

    Very sorry to hear...

    He was a genius. Many people use that word too often these days. Bill Gates and Steve Jobs had nothing on this guy! Nikola Tesla would have done anything to have the intellect of hitch1969. Einstein was a mere boy in comparison.

    Godspeed.

    Glad to hear that rumors of your death during a mass orgy at the Republican National Convention in 2008 were somewhat exaggerated ...

    Damn - you walk away from this site for so many years and this shit goes down, hate to see people die so young.

    Hitch 1969 was a classic in his own right, the HitchWAR and his tirades are timeless. Hitch RIP and while you are there take care of Full Bug as he may need ya.

    I realize that I'm a year late on the news of Hitch's passing. Just wanted to say that back in the Slawterhouse days, he would make me laugh, piss me off, attack me personally, and get under my skin. I banned him from there and he never let me forget it. Once we all migrated to the Army, he was an out of control MF'er who I learned to stay away from. That said... I will miss his crazy ass, obnoxious rants. RIP Hitch.

    Just heard about this today. Anyone know how he died? 47 is far too young.

    I remember the early days of the Roth Army when Hitch was at his prime. His wonderfully warped sense of humor and perspective made his every post required reading. He attracted a cast of freaks and misfits like a modern day P.T. Barnum, and made the Roth Army his circus tent. I believe he once referred to it as his "Island of Broken Toys."

    His Stouffer's Thanksgiving Frozen Dinner rap should be submitted to the Library of Congress for preservation.

    Condolences to his friends and family.

    I'm former forum host Phil the (sniff) s-Stalker! On behalf of all hitchworld1969®️ members we regret to announce the disturbing expiration of hitch©️, who on the 7th - or 8th - of February of this year (2017) was randomly stabbed by bears. This unfortunate incident occurred in an open grave at Camp Fukettoolate. The deceased was reported to have shouted, "Cripes!" just before expiring. hitchworld1969®️ is survived by a bunch of cats, who could really care less. Funeral services will be held the 3rd - or 4th - of next month. Tell flappo so he can get through the travel ban. hitch®️ was famous for once having sold his mom's house to failed comedian Joe Rogan™️ with his mom still in it. And now we pray: UH UH UH UH UH UH UH UH UH UH UH UH UH UH UH UH UH UH UH UH! AMEN!

    Today I went looking for Hitch’s resting spot. With not much info to go on, I parked my car on the side of the road under a tree and planned to start walking the rows until I found it. And his grave was the first thing I stumbled upon. A chill went down my spine.
