On January 15,2016 early in the morning, Zachary Hill,AKA MWHistorian passed away suddenly and unexpectedly. He leaves behind his wonderful wife with whom they were about to celebrate their first anniversary. He was a great and loyal friend and my twin brother. He served his country in the Army, doing two deployments to Iraq. He also served his church, spending two years in Mexico preaching the gospel. I have never known a greater man. He will be missed dearly.

While they are singing "what a friend we have in the greater good", we are bringing the pain!

This is terribly sad news. I've always enjoyed MWHistorian's posts over the years, he's been a comforting and reliable fixture of Dakka. This place will certainly not be the same without him.

Oh goodness. I'm so sorry for your loss. I too enjoyed his posts, even when we didn't agree. His contributions on this forum and to the world will be missed.

Six mistakes mankind keeps making century after century: Believing that personal gain is made by crushing others; Worrying about things that cannot be changed or corrected; Insisting that a thing is impossible because we cannot accomplish it; Refusing to set aside trivial preferences; Neglecting development and refinement of the mind; Attempting to compel others to believe and live as we do

Such sad news, my thoughts are with you and your family, it must have been sudden as he was still posting here just a few days ago. I always valued his posts and the handful of exchanges we had.

It sounds like he had an active and fruitful life to be cut short, it's always hard to lose someone you care about, especially before their time.

I, too, am sorry for the loss. There are only about 20 names on Dakka I've made the effort to make myself remember and recognize as people worth reading, and MWHistorian was one of them.
