Don't know any details. There's a thread on Hotboat, maybe something in there.

From what I understand, he had a heart attack during the night.  But that is just Hotboat hearsay.

I never personally met Tom but he did help me, last year while in Parker with Lightning and the Sportin Woods I was having boat issues, Ari who had dealt with Tom got on the phone with him and gave him my boats symptoms, Tom told Ari that it was one of two things, we tried the first thing and unfortunately it wasn't the problem, Ari did what Tom said might be problem #2 and whalla, no more boat problems. I have heard alot of good things about Tom Papp, godspeed to him and prayers to his family and friends...

I posted this on hotboat as well....

We have truely lost one of the greats....men like Tom don't come along that often, if at all. He was a wonderful guy, always willing to help and always willing to do the right thing. If I think back, I can't think of one person who has ever had anything negative to say about him. I'm still a little in shock about it, truely just a good guy. He will be missed.... TAKE CARE TOM, MAY YOUR 2ND JOURNEY BE AS HAPPY AND WONDERFUL AS YOU MADE EVERYONE OF US FEEL.
