I don't post a lot on this forum, but i do read it from time to time.. i'll miss his posts and sense of humour. R.I.P. MIZ

oh my gosh....i am really shock to hear that The Miz died.

He can be sarcastic at times but I find him quite humorous and he has his own opinions on certain subjects which may be quite different from the general public, but he was always very helpful and willing to share his expertise. I learnt so much from him and appreciated all that he did for the photographic community. I will definitely miss his "voice".

Hello ALL.  Hopefully I didn't give anyone a heart attack. This isn't really the MIZ. I am his good friend Tony and was with him holding his hand when he died. Hon and Todd told me about this blog and as I had Bob's computer I logged on to check it out. I want to thank all of you for taking the time to view and make comments. I've known Bob for 27 years and as many of you said he could be caustic but that was Bob at times. He was always willing to give and help anyone that needed it. He even told the doctors at the cancer center that he shouldn't be there but out helping other people. He will be surely missed by all who really knew him. Again thanks to all for your comments.  :'(

Hi Tony, It made my heart rate speed up as I opened it.   It flashed through my mind that maybe the whole thing was some elaborate joke by the Miz, knowing his sense of humour.
Sorry about you losing a good friend.  He must have been a fun guy to  be around.

I was always amazed at the images that the Miz could create.  He definitely inspired me to learn more about Photoshop and creating that all-illusive "perfect" image.  In that respect, he will be missed.

For those of you that have never seen any of his "creations", you can see some of them here:

By coincidence, I logged on to disaster site MostPhotos, and I noticed that around the end of March, I had a private conversation there with theMiz. Not that long, but this was really him:

[17:53:21]   rjmiz :   u gotta come to NY where we can get u laid
[17:35:16]   Online FlemishDreams :   saw it ;-)
[13:31:21]   rjmiz :   Joined yesterday
[13:31:07]   rjmiz :   Hey I'm new here

I just now noticed why (profile photo):


Take care over there Miz... wherever you are.

I was away when this thread started and have just stumbled upon it.
I can't believe it's true!
Goodbye Miz, you'll be truly missed as one of the most honest and open guys in this industry.

I was away from computer and internet on October 8-13th and only found this news today, because of the previous post.

Very sad news indeed :(
