Matter of fact I learned quite a bit about Dalio's demise last night. Amy called me and told me all about it. I understand he accidentally drowned in a horse swimming pool.  redrose

Awful news. We started in the business more or less together.
They broke the mold when they made Dalio.

Coming in this morning I passed a bus coming out of Akron and got to thinking about how Dalio rode the bus back and forth from the track and the books he read while on the bus.
