Woah, what?! He was just at GP Oakland... Bummer. Got a few cards signed by him and chatted a bit at a GP last year as well. He was super nice and has tons of iconic cards... Sad day.

Hey now he wasn't that old...
he was 51

Which is why I am assuming it was more than just old age. I assume cancer but have no actual information.

GP Houston revealed that Chris Rush passed away of a Heart Attack

Dang. That sucks. At least it wasn't long and drawn out.
