Shawn Ray posted it was congestive heart failure on the MD forum.

when you hear of these things alarm bells ring sadly and selfishly whilst sympathising with the family he's left behind. 62 is young, unfortunately I seem to see patients as young as 50 looking healthy with a sudden stroke.

Fortunately early signs of high cholesterol, blood vessel damage, diabetes and ongoing high BP shows up first in your kidneys and eyes. So having your eyes checked reqularly is a good quick way to detect early signs.

Did he have some sort of falling out with the 2 major publications? Neither FLEX or MD has any mention of it on their websites. Iron Man does, though.

MD had it on their main page last week and there currently are 3 threads in the no bull section on his passing.
