Yes.........

At least One Fine Member, for sure:    Fb7782 
 (Leaving it up to Dan W, whether or not posting deceased member's actual name is relevant.)

You may remember his Forum posting under Reloading, where he wanted help learning to reload.   In fact, I think you (Shooter) may have been a participant in that thread.

Fb7782 was in his......maybe..... late 50s/early 60s.   Had been divorced; two grown sons (one an FFL).

He was temporarily living in Nebraska, having moved from one of the larger eastern states to work on a graduate degree at UNL so that he could pursue a teaching career.

When I met him, he had recently been informed that he had Stage 4 cancer and was undergoing treatment.

However, he died shortly thereafter from a heart attack.

RIP, Fb7782.
