Unhappy Royce Bunnell Of OB Cues Has Passed Away - RIP - 11-25-2015, 03:29 PM

A separate thread to avoid confusion with the existing get well thread.

Unfortunately it is reported that Royce has died following a severe heart attack.

I sure enjoyed chatting with him at the SBE events.

A truly great man has left his family, friends, and our sport.

Godspeed, Sir.

best,
brian kc

Rest In Peace, Royce. I'm completely shocked to hear this. He was a hardworking and dedicated man, who brought a lot to the billiard industry. Always friendly and easy to get along with. I know that he will be sorely missed.

Sad to hear about Royce. He was a game changer in billiards. I know he changed my game when I started playing with an OB shaft.

Royce, we'll all be playing again soon. You bring the shafts, I'll bring the chalk
