Just found out this morning that Blair Patterson (a.k.a. Oracle) passed away yesterday afternoon. I don't have any details yet, but will pass along what I know. Blair is the one that introduced me to this group many years ago, before it was OuterMonvolia, and he was a good friend, and a true Tennessee Volunteer.

Horrible news....what a shock to hear about this....Prayers to family and friends.....Originally posted by Sun Tzu Vol View PostMine's Bigger -
Hate to hear that. I knew I hadn’t seen him on here in a while. Guess he’d been sick. Surprised he didn’t wait long enough for AV to go first so he could follow him.

RIP Oracle.Well you may throw your rock and hide your hand

Yeah, I know. I'm trying to find out what happened, arrangements, etc. right now. Will let you know as soon as I can. I know I hadn't heard from him in a couple of months, but that wasn't unusual. Thought about him the other day, telling a friend about the last UT game I went to which was the Florida game last year. Lucy, Blair and I went with Rich Heinsman, and I had my daughter and her boyfriend drive us up in a van so we could party a little. Great times, and I'll never forget the look on Blair's face when the game was over and we'd won. Pure joy.Originally posted by clintonaldo View PostComment

We had a hell of a tailgate for that game. I will never forget a phone call he had with me this January where I could hear in his voice how concerned he was for me on something. It meant a lot.Originally posted by Sun Tzu Vol View Post
