R.I.P. Hardcore Dan

The unfortunate word tonight is that Dan “Hardcore” Sachar died today in an automobile accident. I did not know Hardcore, but he was a looming presence at Raiders games, a true Raider Nation warrior and a Class of 2004 inductee to the Hall of Fans. This is yet another major blow to the Raider Nation, following the recent passing of Larry “RaiderMan” Gamez. Thanks to Roberto of Raider Raza for alerting me to this sad news. Prayers go out tonight for Hardcore and his family.

NEW UPDATE: 10:50 A.M.

A message from Bob at Raiderfans.net: "The service for Dan will be held at this Saturday (April 1st) @ 4:00pm PST at New Hope Community Church at 2190 Peralta Boulevard in Fremont. After the service, there is a warehouse where they will be having a Tailgate to honor Dan's life...All are welcome to attend! GOD Bless Dan and his family!"

UPDATE: 3/29

A message from Raiderfans.net: “Raiderfans.net is collecting donations for Dan and his family. If you can afford to give, please do so as his family is going through a difficult time right now. You can make a donation via paypal to bob@raiderfans.net. In the comments portion, please put ‘For Dan aka Hardcore.’”

A message from Veronica, Harcore’s Fiancee (please see Comments by Stick’Em below for full text): “I want to thank those of you who have expressed their condolences and prayers for us close to him . Please share any photos or stories about HardCore in honor of his memory.”

A message from Tokai Japan Outpost: “I have posted a photo page in tribute to Hardcore and Dan "Dano" Conrad. Our tailgate lost two true fans in the past few weeks, and we're all reeling. You can find the photos at http://raider-nation.net.”

HardCore always wore his 77 HARDCORE jersey to all the games.

He was such a devoted member of the RAIDER NATION.

I know that a lot of you guys don’t know me... but I appreciate all the kind things you're posting about him .

I want to thank those of you who have expressed their condolences and prayers for us close to him .

Please share any photos or stories about HardCore in honor of his memory.

I don’t know what else to say....

This should be a great off season get together for everyone. HARDCORE would be proud that everyone got together because of him. The more the merrier........ A couple outdoor patio type heaters (rented) will be used in the warehouse so the temperature should be fairly comfortable. We'll have music and all of our traditional tailgate food will be served at this party. There will be soda & water. We request that everyone bring their own alcoholic beverages and feel free to bring anything that you would like to throw on the grill and share. Also bring your tailgate chairs and any other gear you'd like to bring.
We will be accepting donations to cover the cost of the party.

My condolences to anyone who's ever known him. Unfortunately, living out here in NJ, I miss out on experiencing the the local personalities that define being a Raider fan.

The Asus EEE PC 1215N notebook is really a very little bit heavier than other netbook computers however nothing too intense. It's scaled-down measurements makes it significantly less bulky while traveling, and it is less than 3 and a half lb[url=http://www.sreecgmath.org/newcheapgucci.php]Gucci outlet[/url]
The touchpad's functionality could be improved.
